The said fertilizer products received Stop Use, Move, Sale (SUMS) Hold Order since they failed to meet the required guaranteed analysis based on the results of the recent laboratory analyses conducted by the FPA Laboratory Service Division (LSD). Therefore, it violated Presidential Decree No. 1144 and would result in the suspension of their License to Operate (LTOs) and Certificate of Product Registrations (CPRs).<\/span><\/p>

Through the company\u2019s representative, pulled-out fertilizers would be delivered and stored temporarily in the Northern Prime Trading Warehouse located in Panabo, Davao City, while waiting for the company\u2019s advice regarding the final disposal of the off-spec products.<\/span><\/p>

The FPA Central Office has recommended actions for the company to comply within the prescribed time. Moreover, field officers reminded them not to violate any provisions of P.D 1144 again; otherwise, there would be heavier penalties and sanctions.<\/span><\/p>
