# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1172/2013 of 18 November 2013 approving a minor amendment to the specification for a name entered in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications [Kiwi de l’Adour (PGI)], Division: Method of production

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Instead of ‘The application of nitrogen (in the form of soluble fertiliser) must not exceed 6 kg per tonne of fruit produced, or an application of nitrogen per hectare limited to 200 units of nitrogen or, for the exceptional orchards referred to previously, 250 units of nitrogen’ read ‘The application of nitrogen (in the form of soluble fertiliser) must not exceed 70 units of nitrogen per hectare per year (necessary for the growth of the plant) plus 4 units per tonne of fruit produced per hectare per year, subject to a limit of 250 units of nitrogen per hectare per year’.
The amendment relates to developments in how the young ‘Kiwi de l’Adour’ plants are fertilised, according to the needs of the young plants and those of the fruit. In order to give growers more flexibility in fertilising the young plants and particularly in the light of weather conditions, the amendment made takes greater account of the division of inputs.
