1、Designation: C 706 02Standard Specification forLimestone for Animal Feed Use1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 706; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parenthe
2、ses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers limestone supplied for use as amineral supplement in animal feeds.NOTE 1The calcium needed for animal nutrition is customarily
3、supplied by limestone. Such limestone must be sufficiently fine to blendwith mixed feeds and yet be free from excessive dusting.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish
