They must be presented in homogeneous batches. However, for the marketing years 1986/87 and 1987/88, “double zero” colza and rapeseed shall be allowed to contain a - level of glucosinolates not exceeding 35 micromoles per gram of seed’. Article 4 is replaced by the following : Article 4 The drawing of samples and their reduction to samples for analysis, and the determination of the oil, erucic acid, moisture, impurity and glucosinolate contents shall be effected in accordance with the Community methods in Annexes I to VIII to Commission Regula- tion (EEC) No 1470/68 ).
