In the realm of agricultural productivity and management, compliance with regulatory standards is paramount, and the State of California’s Form 513-026 serves as a critical tool in this endeavor. This form, revised in July 2013, is officially known as the Fertilizing Materials Registration Application and falls under the purview of the Department of Food and Agriculture’s Feed, Fertilizer, & Livestock Drugs Regulatory Services. It serves a dual purpose: it is a requisite step for businesses aiming to register their fertilizing materials, and it also acts as a checkpoint for ensuring that these products meet the state's stringent safety and efficacy standards. Applicants are prompted to disclose whether they hold a fertilizing materials license, a necessary precursor to application processing. The form requires detailed information about the applicant and the product, including the business name as it appears on the license and label, contact information, and the type of fertilizing material being registered. Additionally, it mandates the submission of supporting documentation such as organic certification and heavy metals data, underscoring the state's commitment to environmental and public health. The labeling section highlights the importance of accurate product representation, encompassing all promotional materials. Significantly, the form elucidates the department’s commitment to processing applications within established timeframes, with provisions for appealing delays and potentially waiving fees. With a non-refundable fee of one hundred dollars per product and expiration on December 31 of an odd-numbered year, the form encapsulates the procedural and financial aspects of fertilizing material registration, serving as a key document in California's agricultural regulation landscape.
