Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text
The definition of impurity in point 33 now ends with a semicolon instead of a full stop, reflecting that a further item follows it.
A new point 34 has been added defining plant biostimulant as a product that stimulates plant nutrition processes independently of the product's nutrient content, with the sole aim of improving nutrient use efficiency, tolerance to abiotic stress, quality traits, or availability of confined nutrients in soil or rhizosphere.
