This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 3 March 2017 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to
submit their comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS
available promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in
parallel to the CEN/TS) until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia,
Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,

European foreword
This document (CEN/TS 17060:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 260
“Fertilizers and liming materials”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
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 mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association.
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, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,

Introduction
The preparation of this document by CEN is based on a mandate by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association (Mandate M/335), concerning the modernization of methods of
analysis on fertilizers in the framework of Regulation (EC) No 2003/2003 [1].
This document is part of a modular approach and concerns the analytical measurement step. “Modular”
means that a test standard concerns a specific step in assessing a property and not the whole chain of
measurements.
Determination of molybdenum in fertilizers can be executed by inductively coupled plasma-atomic
emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) according to prEN 16963:2016. The gravimetric determination as
molybdenyl oxinate is more labour intensive and skill demanding but it is an option when ICP-AES is
not available.
WARNING — Persons using this European Technical Specification should be familiar with
normal laboratory practice. This European Technical Specification does not purport to address
all of the safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to
establish appropriate health and safety practices and to ensure compliance with any national
regulatory conditions.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this European
Technical Specification are carried out by suitably trained staff.
