Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1355/86 has amended Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 by including hybrid sorghum for sowing among the products covered by the common organization of the market in seeds and making it subject to the reference price system for hybrid maize;
Whereas Article 6 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2358/71 provides that a reference price for each type of hybrid maize and hybrid sorghum for sowing is to be fixed annually; whereas those reference prices must be fixed on the basis of the free-at-frontier prices recorded during the last three marketing years except for abnormally low prices; whereas, pursuant to Article 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1578/72 of 20 July 1972 laying down general rules for fixing reference prices and for determining free-at-frontier offer prices for hybrid maize and hybrid sorghum for sowing (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1984/86 (4), only prices for imports from third countries which are representative in terms of quantity and quality of the product should be taken into consideration;
Whereas imports of the types of hybrid maize for sowing falling within subheading 10.05 A IV 'Other' of the Common Customs Tariff may not be considered as representative on account of the very small quantity involved; whereas no reference prices may therefore be fixed for those types of maize;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Seeds,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
For the 1987/88 marketing year, the reference prices for hybrid maize and hybrid sorghum for sowing falling within subheadings 10.05 A I, 10.05 A II, 10.05 A III and 10.07 C I of the Common Customs Tariff shall be as set out in the Annex hereto.
