On behalf of the German fertilizer industry, we, the German Agrochemical Industry Association (IVA), are of the opinion that the current zero draft of the „Code of Conduct“ needs some substantial improvements. As a national association we therefore generally support the International Fertilizer Association (IFA´s) argumentation and comments to the zero draft. In particular, we support the notion that the developement of such an important document should be made with due diligence and not in an unnecessary rapidity to improve its quality and relevance for the industry and stakeholders alike.
