Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Given the scale, the coverage of all EU countries and the recent date of the study, the results are considered relevant for assessing current soil quallity (grassland) in the EU.
- Executive summary:
90P zinc concentrations for 3 EU countries are given in results section. The remaining 24 country data are given in a separate study record.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
