(b) In the case of bulk shipments, the information required in subsection (a) of this section may be in handwritten or printed form, shall accompany delivery and shall be supplied to the purchaser at the time of delivery. (c) No information or statement may appear on any package, label delivery slip or advertising matter that is false or misleading to the purchaser as to the use, value, quality, analysis, type or composition of the soil amendment. (d) The commissioner may require proof of claims made for any soil amendment. If no claims are made, the commissioner may require proof of usefulness and value of the soil amendment. For evidence of proof the commissioner may rely on experimental data, evaluations or advice supplied from such sources as the director if design of the experiment is related to conditions in this state under which the product is to be used. The commissioner may accept or reject other sources of proof deemed to be reliable as additional evidence in evaluating soil amendments. (e) No soil amending ingredient may be listed on labels or labeling of soil amendments without the permission of the commissioner. The commissioner may allow a soil amending ingredient to be listed on the label or labeling if satisfactory supportive data is provided to substantiate the value and usefulness of the soil amending ingredients. The commissioner may rely on authoritative sources, including, but not limited to, the director, for assistance in evaluating any such data submitted. When a soil amending ingredient is permitted to be listed, the presence of such ingredient in such amendment shall be detectable by laboratory methods and shall be subject to inspection and analysis. The director may prescribe methods and procedures of inspection and analysis of the soil amending ingredient. (f) The commissioner may allow labeling to include listing proportions of ingredients in soil amendments by volume rather than by weight.
