Where the regulation applies

The regulation applies to grain placed on the market for food and feed, and to related storage, transport, sale and disposal processes. Seed grain and processed products require separate identification and must not automatically be treated as having the same scope.

What the regulation covers

Limits are established for toxic elements, mycotoxins, pesticides, radionuclides and other safety parameters. The regulation also addresses pest infestation, impurities, storage conditions and documents accompanying grain.

Examples of products and facilities

  • wheat
  • barley
  • maize
  • rye
  • oats
  • rice

These examples are indicative. Applicability depends on intended use, specifications and the regulation’s exclusions.

Documentation we help prepare

PLANCK helps assemble crop, intended-use, origin and batch information, and prepare sampling and documentation for testing and declaration.

Before selecting a route, we check the current text, effective date, transitional provisions and exclusions. Listing a regulation does not mean it already applies to every product in that category.

What to prepare

  • Technical description and intended use
  • The key parameters listed above
  • Models, manufacturer and applicant details
  • Existing conformity evidence

What you receive

A requirements matrix for your product: scope, assessment route, necessary evidence and next actions.
