Does the Fertilizer Use Act apply to farmers?

The statement that the Fertilizer Use Act does not apply to farmers is accurate because the Act primarily targets the sale and distribution of fertilizers rather than their use by agricultural producers. In context, the Fertilizer Use Act is designed to regulate the labeling, distribution, and sale of fertilizers to ensure safety and efficacy. Farmers, as end-users, are generally seen as exempt from the act's compliance requirements focusing on commercial aspects. This exemption allows them to apply fertilizers based on their individual crop needs without being subject to the regulations that govern fertilizer manufacturers and suppliers.
