Commission Report tothe Council onthesituation
regarding the production and marketing ofhops :
1979 harvest
INTRODUCTION
Under Council Regulation (EEC)NOI696/7Iof26July 1971 onthe common
organization ofthe market inhops ,the Commission each year before 30April
presents tothe Council areport ,onthesituation regarding the production
and marketing ofhops and concludes bysubmitting proposals for aid in
respect ofthe harvest ofthe previous oalendar year .This report concerns
the 1979 harvest .
InDecember 1979 "the Commission proposed tothe Cpuncil that the prohibition
onthe extension ofCommunity areas should beextended for nine months from
31t)ecei5ber 1979 inorder torationalize the Community and world market on
alasting basis .Atthe same time ,itproposed tothe~ Council that following
theexpiry ofthis period all producers inthe Community ,whether ornot
associated inproducer groups which had taken part inthe structural mea­
sures ,would beput onthe same footing toenable them todevelop their
areas freely according tomarket requirements .Inview ofthedifficulties
encountered inthe Council ,the Commission withdrew its proposal on
18March 198O .
However ,onthe basis ofthis report the Commission considers that inthe
medium term there isadanger that areas will beextended inexcess of
demand .This extension could again have harmful effects onthe prices ob­
tained byproducers .Accordingly ,itproposes that the Council should limit
aid anditreserves the right topresent tothe Council new proposals rela­
ting tothecontrol ofareas onthebasis ofthe 1980 harvest .Inaddition ,
the Commission will bring home tothe other major countries inthe world
the need topursue aoautious policy with regard tonew plantings .,. ,

WORLD SITUATION
a)Market structure (Tables 1,2)
Since there isavery large volume ofinternational trade inhops ,
prices are strongly influenced "bythe relationship "between supply and
demand atworld level .
The world market oan bedivided into five roughly homogeneous sectors
1–EEC :net exporter of25 ofits production
2–USA ^.:netexporter of25%ofitsproduction
3-COMECON :netimporter of5"to10%ofitsrequirements
4–Other major producer countries :
netimporters of5-to10%oftheir requirements
5–Other mainly non–producer countries : '
net .importers of95%oftheir requirements .
This structure does not exolude considerable trade within each sector
and between sectors |especially inthe EEC –USA –COMECON triangle .
* \
Inthis structure ,five countries are normally net hop exporters with
output inexcess oftheir requirements .Estimated figures are as.
follows :
1979

126.000
58.000
18.000
1,481.000 801.000 680.000

Itclearly emerges from these figures that in1979 there were three "
major exporting countries ,with theFederal Republic ofGermany in
first place ,followed bythe USA and Czechoslovakia .
Thegreater part ofAmerican production (about 95%)isusually con­
tracted for inadvance while the Federal Republic ofGermany sells a
large proportion ofitsproduction onthe open market (normally about
20to30 in1979 s16%).Most ofCzechoslovak production iscon­
tracted forinadvance (about 90%)• '
b)1979 harvest -
The Commission notes that ,with regard tothe 1979 harvest ,prices
onthe free market increased considerably compared -with those for the
1978 harvest andalso compared with theprices applied inrespect of
1contracts concluded inadvance .
In1979 world production was 115*800 tfrom anarea of78.146 ha,or
slightly less than the Quantity required bythe world brewing indu –
stiy (estimated at .11.8.000 t).Consequently ,there was some depletion
of.stocks .While they were about 4%higher than normal following the
1978 harvest ,they areabout 2to3%less than normal following the
1979 harvest .
Asaresult ,prices onthefree market rose .Thepattern was as

o)Medium term forecasts –World (Table 4)
Forthe 1980 harvest anincrease ofabout 4*600 ha(to81.900 ha)is
expeoted asaresult ofaninorease ofabout 900 hainthe EEC and
about 2.000 hainthe USA,1.100 hainthe Comecon countries and
about 600 hainthe rest ofthe world .
Ifyield isnormal (about -1.46t/ha)production will remain slightly
short ofthe requirements ofthe world brewing industry and stocks
will bereduced slightly in1981 .Prices for the -1980 harvest are
thus expeoted toincrease .Nevertheless itshould benoted that if
yield were 5%above normal surplus stocks could again beconsti -
»
tuted .Inthese circumstanoes the Commission considers that itis
reasonable toprevent the too rapid extension ofareas under hops .
With regard tothe 1981 and 1982 harvests ,the Commission considers
that market balance depeads onthejudicious planning ofareas in
relation todemand bythe major hop producing countries inorder to
prevent anexcessive increase inareas following the good prices for
the 1979 and -19^0 harvests .This isallthe more important ashop
gardens donot come into full production for three years .Given the
trend indemand andyields andthereduction instocks in 1979/80,
the Commission oonsidera that the world area under hops should not
exoeed 83and 84*000 harespectively atthe time ofthe 1981 and
1982 harvests .

II.SITUATION INTHECOMMUNITY (Tables 9-12)
a)Situation ln1979
In1979 "theEECaccounted ,for32%oftheworld area under hops and
38ioofworld production .TheCommission noted that the "balance
between varieties with ahigh alpha acid content andaromatic varie­
ties was29%against JO%ofEECproduction in1971 and47%
against 50%in1979 *
In1979 EECproduction was44•800tfrom anarea of24.658 ha.The
area wasabout 600haless than in1978 following theresults ofthe
second year ofstructural measures fbroken down byMember State as

Production wasabout 5%higher than in1978 .
In1978/79EECexports were more orless thesame asin1977/78but
there was aninorease inimports .Community exports areexpected to
increase during the1979/80marketing period compared with 1978/79
butimports areexpected toremain steady .
TheCommission estimates that the surplus held bybrewers andthe
trade intheEEC–which wasabout 8%atthebeginning ofthe1979
harvest –could bereduced toabout 6$following theanticipated
increase inCommunity exports .

In1978 beer production inthe EECstabilized compared with 1977 .
Wosignificant inoreaae isexpected in1979 and 1980 but,given the
effects oftechnical improvements ,demand for hops should contract -
slightly .
) . •
Advance contract prices were maintained atthe same level asin
1978 while non-contract prices rose .Theprice increase onthefree
market ismainly theresult ofthestructural measures taken bythe
EECduring 1978 and 1979 »which had theeffect ofreducing surplus
production inthe Community -and the world and bringing itmore into
line with demand .
Thequantities sold onthefree market have been asfollows in
recent years :
'. (Ztr)
1979 150.000
1978 166.000
1977 327.000
1976 174.000
1975 203.000
1974 227.000
b)Structural measures : • ..
The structural measures for the reorganization ofhop-gardens and
varietal conversion ,'coupled with a40%reduction intheareas
concerned ,were applied tothe 1978 and 1979 harvests .Theresults
ofthis operation were thereorganization of611 ha,the conversion
of692haandareduction of2.414 ha,broken down asfollows :

Belgium 9 23 191
United Kingdom '– – –
Ireland – –, –'
Total 611 692 2.414
Thecost ofthese operations ,was 7»055*633 ECU.
The reduction of2.414 hainthe area tinder hops inthe Community
ismainly responsible for the improvement inthe Community and world
market situation in1978 and 1979 *
)Medium term forecasts -EEC (Table 11)
Itisestimated that thearea under hops in1980.will increase by
about 900 hato25.500 ha.Ifyield isnormal the harvest could
produce between 43.4OO tand44*900 t(about 44•100t).Sales under
advance contracts areestimated atbetween 80and 85%ofproduction ,
or36.000 t.Thus about 8.000 twill beoffered onthefree market .
Iftheestimates ofnet EECexports in1979/80areaccurate (about
11.200 t)areduction canbeexpected instocks held bythe
Community brewing industry (estimated atabout 4higher than
normal atthebeginning ofthe 1979 harvest ),which will thus attain
awell-balanced level .
The Commission estimates that outlets for Community production will
stabilize atbetween 45*000 and 45*500 tin1981 and 1982 .This
reflects areduction ofabout 1$peryear intheinternal consump­
tion ofEECbreweries (following technical development andthe

CONCLUSION .
I. The Commission finds that the restructuring and conversion programme
'has produced positive results ,with anoverall reduction of2.414
i t
hectares inthe area under hops inthe Community ,including 1.031
hectares for "bitter varieties and 1.383 hectares for aromatic varieties .
* '
This has brought more stability tothe Community market ,with aredue--
tion insurplus stocks and asubstantial improvement inprice levels .
The Commission also finds that application ofthecertification system
for the second year has encountered nomajor problems and has provided
better control over quality andgreater transparency ofmarketing
networks .
% ' ■
II.Inview ofthese trends ,the Commission 'sproposal onaidfor the
1979 harvest isdesigned toachieve the following aims :
1.Toprovide anadequate supplement togrowers 1incomes ,which ,
despite improvements ,are insome cases insufficient owing firstly
tothe low price levels fixed inforward contracts made inthe
last fewyears andsecondly tothecost ofcertification (Article
12(5)(a )ofRegulation (EEC)Wo1696/71).
2.Toallow recognized producer groups tomaintain apolicy ofmarket
stability soastoaohieve general andlasting balance between
supply and demand .
3*Toensure ,bymeans ofdifferential aid,arational distribution %
ofproduction byhop type inaccordance with the trend indemand .
•/. ;

-13-
III .TheCommission therefore proposes the following amounts :
»
Group ofvarieties .Aid inECU/ha
Aromatic varieties 250
Bitter varieties' -200
Other varieties 250
Therefore ,theaverage aidperhectare for alleligible land will
fall from 396EOTforthe1978 harvest to226ECUforthe1979
harvest .
Inspite ofthis fall intheaid ,planters *revenues will be
satisfactory owing tothebetter prices obtainable onthemarket .
This Commission proposal will Make itpossible ,following the
efforts made inrespect ofstructural measures ,toachieve signi­
ficant economies inthebudget oftheGuarantee Section ofthe
EAGGP (1978 :19million ECU,1979 *5,6million ECU).
