1.  In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, indicate the storage temperature, storage life, and stability to pelleting.

2.  Recommended dose per kilogram of complete feed for:

— poultry, piglets (weaned) and pigs for fattening: 500-4 000 FYT,

— sows: 500-4 000 FYT.

3.  For use in feed containing more than 0,23 % phytin-bound phosphorus.

4.  For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks resulting from its use. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, appropriate personal protective equipment should be used.
