COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1121/2009
of 29 October 2009
laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 as regards the support schemes for farmers provided for in Titles IV and V thereof
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 of 19 January 2009 establishing common rules for direct support schemes for farmers under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers, amending Regulations (EC) No 1290/2005, (EC) No 247/2006, (EC) No 378/2007 and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 (1), and in particular Article 29(4)(a), Article 87(4), Article 89(2), Article 91(2), the second subparagraph of Article 101(2), Article 103(1), Article 142(c), (e), (q) and (s) and Article 147 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 73/2009 repeals and replaces Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 of 29 September 2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers and amending Regulations (EEC) No 2019/93, (EC) No 1452/2001, (EC) No 1453/2001, (EC) No 1454/2001, (EC) No 1868/94, (EC) No 1251/1999, (EC) No 1254/1999, (EC) No 1673/2000, (EEC) No 2358/71 and (EC) No 2529/2001 (2). The implementing rules for the application of the support schemes provided for in Titles IV and IVa of Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 were laid down in Commission Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 of 29 October 2004 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 as regards the support schemes provided for in Titles IV and IVa of that Regulation and the use of land set aside for the production of raw materials (3). Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 needs to be adapted to the changes introduced by Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, notably those provided for in Title IV and in Chapters 2 and 4 of Title V thereof. In the interest of clarity and simplification Regulation (EC) No 1973/2004 should be repealed and replaced by a new Regulation. |
(2) |
In order to ensure the efficient administration of the schemes provided for in Title IV of Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, the payments to be granted under some of those schemes should be restricted to minimum size of the areas (area payment). The minimum area size should be fixed taking into account the particular size of farms in some Member States or the specific conditions for some productions. |
(3) |
The sowing of land for the sole purpose of qualifying for area payments should be prevented. Certain conditions relating to the sowing and cultivation of crops should be specified, in particular as regards protein plants and rice and fruit and vegetables. Local standards should be respected in order to reflect the diversity of agricultural practice within the Community. |
(4) |
Only one application for an area payment should be permitted in respect of any parcel cultivated in a given year except in cases where the aid concerns the production of seeds. Area payments may be granted on crops subsidised under a scheme falling within the Community’s structural or environmental policies. |
(5) |
Supports schemes provide that where the area, the quantity or the number of animals for which aid is claimed exceeds maximum limits, the area or quantity or number for which aid is claimed is to be reduced proportionately in that year. It is therefore appropriate to establish the modalities and deadlines for the exchange of information between the Commission and the Member States in order to inform the Commission of the areas or quantities or numbers for which the aid has been paid. |
