ANNEX VII U.K. Calculation of the reference amount referred to in Article 37

A. Area aids U.K.

1. Where a farmer has received area aids, the number of hectares, to two decimal places, for which a payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, shall be multiplied by the following amounts: U.K.

1.1. For cereals, including durum wheat, oilseeds, protein crops, linseed, flax and hemp grown for fibre, grass silage and set-aside: U.K.

• EUR 63/t multiplied by the yield as provided for in Article 4(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999 determined in the regionalisation plan for the region concerned applicable in the calendar year 2002.

This point shall apply without prejudice to the provisions laid down by Member States in application of Article 6(6) of Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999.

By way of derogation from Article 38, for flax and hemp, the average shall be calculated on the basis of the number hectares for which a payment was granted in the calendar year 2001 and 2002.

Where a farmer has received potato starch payment, the amount shall be calculated by multiplying the number of tonnes for which such a payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, by EUR 44,22 per tonne of potato starch. Member states shall calculate the number of hectares to be included in calculation of the single payment proportionately to the number of tonnes of potato starch produced for which the aid provided for in Article 8(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 1766/92 has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, and within the limits of a base area to be fixed by the Commission on the basis of the number of hectares, covered by a cultivation contract in the reference period, communicated by Member States.

C. Livestock premiums and supplements U.K.

Where a farmer has received livestock premiums and/or supplements, the amount shall be calculated by multiplying the number of determined animals for which such a payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, by the amounts per head established for the calendar year 2002 by the corresponding Articles referred to in Annex VI, taking into account the application of Article 4(4), Article 7(2) and Article 10(1) of Regulation (EC) No 1254/1999 or Article 8(3) of Regulation (EC) No 2529/2001.

By way of derogation from Article 38, for sheep and goat additional payments granted on the basis of Article 11(2) first, second and fourth indent of Regulation (EC) No 2529/2001, the average shall be calculated on the basis of the number of animals for which the payment has been granted in the calendar year 2002.

• EUR 24/t multiplied by the yields utilised for the area payments for cereals, oilseeds, linseed and flax and hemp grown for fibre in the regions indicated in Article 4(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1251/1999;

• the amount per head as provided for in Article 9(1)(a) and (b) of Regulation (EC) No 1452/2001, Articles 13(2) and (3), 22(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 1453/2001, Article 5(2) and (3), 6(1) and (2) of Regulation (EC) No 1454/2001, multiplied by the number of animals for which such a payment has been granted in 2002;

• the amount per head as provided for in Article 6(2) and (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 2019/93 multiplied by the number of animals for which such a payment has been granted in 2002.

F. Seed aids U.K.

Where a farmer has received seed production aid, the amount shall be calculated by multiplying the number of tonnes for which such a payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, by the amount per tonne established in application of Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71. Member States shall calculate the number of hectares to be included in calculation of the single payment proportionately to area accepted for certification for which the aid provided for in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, and within the limits of a base area to be fixed by the Commission on the basis of the total area accepted for certification as communicated to the Commission according to Regulation (EEC) No 3083/73. This total area shall not include the area accepted for certification for rice (Oryza sativa L.), spelt (Triticum spelta L.), and fibre and oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) and hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) that already has been declared for arable crops.

[F14 G. Cotton U.K.

Where a farmer has declared areas sown under cotton, Member States shall calculate the amount to be included in the reference amount by multiplying the number of hectares, to two decimal places, which produced cotton that was granted aid pursuant to paragraph 3 of Protocol 4 on cotton (4) in each year of the reference period, by the following amounts per hectare:

• EUR 966 for Greece,

• EUR 1 509 for Spain,

F14 Inserted by Council Regulation (EC) No 864/2004 of 29 April 2004 amending Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers, and adapting it by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia to the European Union.

H. Olive oil U.K.

Where a farmer has received olive oil production aid, the amount shall be calculated by multiplying the number of tonnes for which such a payment has been granted in the reference period (i.e. respectively, in each of the marketing years 1999/2000, 2000/01, 2001/02 and 2002/03) by the corresponding unit amount of aid, expressed in EUR/tonne, as fixed in Commission Regulations (EC) No 1415/2001 (5) , (EC) No 1271/2002 (6) , (EC) No 1221/2003 (7) and [F15 (EC) No 1299/2004] (8) , and multiplied by a 0,6 coefficient. However, Member States may decide by 1 August 2005 to increase this coefficient. This coefficient shall not be applied to farmers whose average number of olive GIS-ha during the reference period, excluding the number of olive GIS-ha corresponding to additional trees planted outside any approved planting scheme after 1 May 1998 , is less than 0,3. The number of olive GIS-ha shall be calculated by a common method to be established in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 144(2) and on the basis of data from the geographic information system for olive cultivation.

Textual Amendments

F15 Substituted by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2183/2005 of 22 December 2005 amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003 establishing common rules for direct support schemes under the common agricultural policy and establishing certain support schemes for farmers and amending Regulation (EC) No 795/2004 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of the single payment scheme provided for in Council Regulation (EC) No 1782/2003.

Where the aid payments during the reference period have been affected by application of the measures laid down in Article 2(3) of Regulation (EEC) No 1638/98 (9) , the calculation mentioned in the third subparagraph shall be adjusted as follows:

• where the measures were applied to only one marketing year, the number of tonnes to be taken into account for the year concerned shall be equal to the number of tonnes for which aid would have been granted had the measures not been applied,

• where the measures were applied to two consecutive marketing years, the number of tonnes to be taken into account for the first year concerned shall be established in accordance with the first indent, and the number of tonnes to be taken into account for the following year shall be equal to the number of tonnes for which aid was granted in respect of the last marketing year before the reference period which has not been affected by an application of the said measures.

Member States shall calculate the number of hectares to be included in the calculation of the single payment as the number of olive GIS-ha obtained by a common method to be established in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 144(2) and on the basis of data from the geographic information system for olive cultivation, excluding the number of olive GIS-ha of additional trees planted outside an approved planting scheme after 1 May 1998 , except for Cyprus and Malta, for which the date shall be 31 December 2001 .

I. Raw tobacco U.K.

Where a farmer has received a tobacco premium payment, the amount to be included in the reference amount shall be calculated by multiplying the three-year average number of kilograms from which such a payment was granted, by the weighted three-year average aid amount granted per kilogram, taking into account the total quantity of raw tobacco of all variety groups and multiplied by a 0,4 coefficient. Member States may decide to increase this coefficient.

As from 2010 the coefficient shall be 0,5.

The number of hectares to be included in calculation of the single payment shall correspond to the area indicated in the registered cultivation contracts for which the premium payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, and within the limits of a base area to be fixed by the Commission on the basis of the total area as communicated to the Commission in accordance with Annex I(1.3) to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2636/1999 (10) .

Where the aid payments during the reference period have been affected by an application of the measures laid down in Article 50 of Regulation (EEC) No 2848/98, the calculation mentioned in the third subparagraph shall be adjusted as follows:

• where the premium has been partly or totally reduced, the amounts of payment to be taken into account for the year concerned shall be equal to the amounts which would have been granted without the reduction,

• where the production quota has been partly or totally reduced, the amounts of payment to be taken into account for the year concerned shall be equal to the premium amounts that would have been granted in the preceding year, without the reduction of the premium, provided that the production area indicated in the last cultivation contract was not used for the cultivation of a crop eligible under any other direct support scheme in the year concerned.]

[F14 J. Hops U.K.

Where a farmer has received hops area aid or temporary resting aid, Member States shall calculate the amounts to be included in the reference amount by multiplying the number of hectares, to two decimal places, for which a payment has been granted, respectively, in each year of the reference period, by an amount of EUR 480 per hectare.]

[F6 K. Sugar beet, cane and chicory U.K.

1.

• the quantities of sugar or inulin syrup produced in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001

• the average number of hectares under sugar beet, cane or chicory used for the production of sugar or inulin syrup and covered by delivery contracts concluded in accordance with Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001

in respect of a representative period which could be different for each product of one or more marketing years from the marketing year 2000/2001 and, in case of the new Member States from the marketing year 2004/2005, up to the marketing year 2006/2007, and to be determined by Member States before 30 April 2006 .

However, where the representative period includes the marketing year 2006/2007, this marketing year shall be replaced by the marketing year 2005/2006 for farmers affected by a renunciation of quota in the marketing year 2006/2007 as provided for in Article 3 of Regulation (EC) No 320/2006.

As regards the marketing years 2000/2001 and 2006/2007 the references to Article 19 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 shall be replaced by references to Article 37 of Regulation (EC) No 2038/1999 (11) and Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 318/2006.

ANNEX XI U.K. List of seed species referred to in Article 99

a Grain measurements are taken on wholly milled rice by the following method: (i) take a sample representative of the batch; (ii) sieve the sample so as to retain only whole grains, including immature grains; (iii) carry out two measurements of 100 grains each and work out the average; (iv) express the results in millimetres, rounded off to one decimal place.
b The tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content of a variety is determined by analysing a sample maintained at constant weight. The weight of THC in relation to the weight of the sample must - for the purposes of granting the aid - not be greater than 0,2 %. The sample is to consist of the upper third of a representative number of plants selected at random at the end of their flowering period and with stalks and seeds removed.
