CROPS EXCLUSIVELY 
USED FOR ANIMAL 
FEED (  8 ) 
( 1 ) The code number is introduced by this Annex and is intended to set a classification under this and other related Annexes of R egulation 
(EC) No 396/2005. 
( 2 ) The scientific name of the items listed in the column “Examples of individual products within the groups to which the MRLs ap ply”, 
where possible and relevant, is mentioned. As much as possible the International System of Nomenclature is followed. 
( 3 ) The word “others” covers anything not explicitly mentioned under the rest of the codes within “Groups to which the MRLs apply ”. 
( 4 ) MRLs in Annex II and III for the product apply only for the product when used for human consumption. For parts of the product  used 
exclusively as ingredients for animal feed, separate MRLs will be applicable. 
( 5 ) Where the pesticide and/or metabolites (included in the residue definition) is/are water soluble (log P  ow less than 3) the MRL is 
expressed as mg/kg of meat (including fat), preparations of meat, offal and animal fats. Where the pesticide and/or metabolite (included 
in the residue definition) is/are fat soluble (log P  ow greater than or equal to 3) the MRL is expressed as mg/kg of fat contained in the 
meat, preparations of meat, offal and animal fats. In the case of foodstuffs with a fat content of 10 % or less by weight, the residue is 
related to the total weight of the boned foodstuff. In such cases, the maximum level is one-tenth of the value related to fat c ontent, but 
must be no less than 0,01 mg/kg. The latter does not apply when the MRL is set at the LOD. 
( 6 ) Where the pesticide and/or metabolites (included in the residue definition) is/are water soluble (log P  ow less than 3) the MRL is 
expressed as mg/kg of milk and milk products. Where the pesticide and/or metabolite (included in the residue definition) is/are  fat 
soluble (log P  ow greater than or equal to 3) the MRL is expressed as mg/kg of cow’s milk and whole cream cow’s milk. In determining 
the residues in raw cow’s milk and whole cream cow’s milk, a fat content of 4 % by weight should be taken as a basis. For raw m ilk 
and whole cream milk of another animal origin the residues are expressed on the basis of the fat. For the other foodstuffs list ed with a 
fat content of less than 2 % by weight, the maximum level is taken as half that set for raw milk and whole cream milk, with a f at 
content of 2 % or more by weight, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg of fat. In such cases, the maximum level is 25 times that 
set for raw milk and whole cream milk. The latter does not apply when the MRL is set at the LOD. 
( 7 ) Where the pesticide and/or metabolites (included in the residue definition) is/are water soluble (log P  ow less than 3) the MRL is 
expressed as mg/kg of shelled fresh eggs, for bird’s eggs and egg yolks; Where the pesticide/or metabolite (included in the res idue 
definition) is/are fat soluble (log P  ow greater than or equal to 3) the MRL is also expressed as mg/kg of shelled fresh eggs, for bird’s eggs 
and egg yolks. However, for eggs and egg products with a fat content higher than 10 %, the maximum level is expressed in mg/kg fat. 
In this case, the maximum level is 10 times higher than the maximum level for fresh eggs. The latter does not apply when the MR L is 
set at the LOD.
