European foreword
This document (CEN/TS 17711:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 455
“Plant biostimulants”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a Standardization Request given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards
body. A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium,
Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway,
Poland, Portugal, Republic of North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
This document was prepared by the experts of CEN/TC 455 “Plant Biostimulants”. The European
Committee for Standardization (CEN) was requested by the European Commission (EC) to draft
European standards or European standardization deliverables to support the implementation of
Regulation (EU) 2019/1009 of 5 June 2019 laying down rules on the making available on the
market of EU fertilizing products (“FPR” or “Fertilising Products Regulation”).
This standardization request, presented as M/564, also contributes to the Communication on
“Innovating for Sustainable Growth: A Bio economy for Europe”. The Working Group 5 “Labelling
and denominations”, was created to develop a work program as part of this Request. The technical
committee CEN/TC 455 “Plant Biostimulants” was established to carry out the work program that
will prepare a series of standards. The interest in biostimulants has increased significantly in
Europe as a valuable tool to use in agriculture. Standardization was identified as having an
important role in order to promote the use of biostimulants. The work of CEN/TC 455 seeks to
improve the reliability of the supply chain, thereby improving the confidence of farmers, industry,
and consumers in biostimulants, and will promote and support commercialisation of the
European biostimulant industry.
Because of the large variety of Plant Biostimulant products, the horizontal method described in
this document may not be appropriate in every detail for certain products. In this case, different
methods, which are specific to these products may be used if absolutely necessary for justified
technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt will be made to apply this horizontal method as far
as possible.
The harmonization of test methods cannot be immediate and, for certain groups of products,
International Standards and/or national standards may already exist that do not comply with this
horizontal method. It is hoped that when such standards are reviewed they will be changed to
comply with this document so that eventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal
method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons.
WARNING — Persons using this document should be familiar with normal laboratory practice.
This document does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted in accordance with this document
be carried out by suitably trained staff.
