Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

If the properties of the active substance, the impurity or the metabolite, as appropriate, indicate that it might concentrate in a given processed fraction, then a processing study shall be necessary even in situations where the residue in the plant or plant product to be processed is lower than 0,1 mg/kg. In such cases, exaggerated application rates up to 5 × or shortened PHIs shall be applied where necessary to achieve a quantifiable residue in the plant or plant product to be processed. A processing study shall not be required if exaggerated application rates (up to 5 ×) fail to yield a quantifiable residue in the plant or plant product to be processed. Phytotoxicity shall be considered when contemplating exaggerated rate treatments.
