Each separately identified product shall be registered before being distributed in this state. The application for registration shall be submitted to the commissioner and State Chemist on the form furnished or approved by the commissioner and shall be accompanied by a fee of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) per product. Upon approval by the commissioner and State Chemist, a copy of the registration shall be furnished to the applicant. All registrations expire on June 30, following registration. Each manufacturer shall submit to the commissioner and State Chemist copies of labels and advertising literature with the registration request for each soil or plant amendment. A distributor shall not be required to register any brand of soil or plant amendment which is already registered under this act by another person, providing the label and labeling do not differ in any respect. Before registering any soil or plant amendment, the commissioner and State Chemist may require evidence to substantiate the claims made for the soil or plant amendment and proof of the value and usefulness of the soil or plant amendment as in Section 69-24-7(3), (4). The commissioner and State Chemist may, by regulation, set the minimum amount of any soil or plant amending ingredients that must be present before a soil or plant amendment can be registered and sold. If the application for renewal of the soil or plant amendment registration provided for in this section is not filed prior to July 1 of any one year, a penalty of Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) shall be assessed and added to the original fee and shall be paid by the applicant before the renewal soil or plant amendment registration shall be issued; provided, however, that such penalty shall not apply if the applicant furnishes an affidavit that he has not distributed this soil or plant amendment subsequent to the expiration of his prior registration.
