Import Tips & Compliance
• Label containers clearly as 'Fertilizer Grade' to match statistical suffix; mismatches lead to liquidation
• Comply with EPA pesticide rules if marketed as plant nutrient; provide safety data sheets
• Test for heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium) common in wet-process acid; US limits apply for ag use
