Whereas Article 5 (1) and (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 provides for a premium to be granted to compensate for any loss of income sustained by producers of sheepmeat and, in certain areas, of goatmeat; whereas those areas are defined in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 and in Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1065/86 of 11 April 1986 determining the mountain areas in which the premium for goatmeat producers is granted (5), as amendsed by Regulation (EEC) No 3519/86 (6);

Whereas pursuant to Article 5 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89, the premium payable to producers of heavy lambs in respect of the 1993 marketing year is obtained by multiplying the loss of income by a coefficient expressing the annual average production of heavy lamb meat per ewe producing such lambs, expressed in terms of 100 kilograms carcase weight; whereas, in accordance with the abovementioned Regulation, the premium per ewe for producers of light lambs and per female goat for the 1993 marketing year should be 80 % of the premium for producers of heavy lambs;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89, the premium must be reduced by the impact on the basis price of the coefficient provided for in Article 8 (2) of that Regulation; whereas that coefficient was fixed at 7 % by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2069/92 of 30 June 1992 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 (9);
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1601/92 provides for the application from 1 July 1992 of specific measures with regard to agricultural production in the Canary Islands; whereas those measures involve the granting of a supplement to the premium payable to producers of light lambs and female goats on the same terms as those laid down for the granting of the premium provided for in Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89; whereas those terms provided for Spain to be authorized to pay the supplement to the premium;
