In particular, it implements article 5 according to which member states have to 1) establish a code of good agricultural practice, to be implemented by farmers on a voluntary basis; b) set up where necessary a programme, including the provision of training and information for farmers, promoting the application of the code of good agricultural practice. The present Ordinance applies to plants storing fertilizers containing nitrates.
