THE FERTILISERS AND FEEDING- STUFFS (AMENDMENT) REGULATIONS, 1951.
The Fertilisers and Feeding Stuffs Act, 1926, provides that a Vendor of
any article sold for use as food for cattle or poultry shall, if the article is
included in the Second Schedule to the Act, give to the Purchaser a -written statement
containing prescribed particulars of the nature, substance or quality of the article.
It also provides that, if the article is sold by a name specified in the Fourth

contained in the Schedule. Because of the recent development in the drying of
grass, various forms of the dried grass are now an important animal feeding stuff®
These Regulations apply the provisions of the Fertilisers and Feeding Stuffs Act,
1926, to dried grass so that a Purchaser may now obtain particulars of the quality
of the article he purchases, and, if the dried grass is sold under certain specified
descriptions, a Warranty that it accords with the defintion set out in the Regulations.
