Brussels, 29  June  1992 

Proposal  for a 

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) 

laying down, In respect of hops, the amount of aid to producers 

for the 1991 harvest 

(presented by the Commission) 

REPORT OF THE COMMISSION TO THE COUNCIL 

on the production and marketing of hops 

(1991 harvest) 

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

(PCUL/EN/1270) 

It  is proposed  that  on  the basis of  the attached  Commission  report  on  the 
production  and marketing  of  hops  for  the  1991  harvest  the Council  adopt  the 
proposal  for  a Régulât ion setting  aid  to hop producers  for  the  1991  harvest  at 
the  fol lowing  levels: 

aromat ic var iet ies 
bitter  varieties 
other  varieties 
experimental  varieties 

ECU  340/hectare 
ECU  340/hectare 
ECU  340/hectare 
ECU  340/hectare 

This proposal  means  a status quo  in the average  level  of  aid  to producers  as 
compared  with  the  1990 harvest.  Since  the average  grower's  returns  per  hectare 
decreased  by 0.58% over  the previous  year  (the average  return  per  hectare  in full 
production  being  ECU 5.618/ha) whereas  production  costs went  up  by  0.63%  (the 
average  production  cost  being  ECU 7.809/ha),  the maintenance  of  the  level  of  aid 
appears  to be  Justified. 

According  to the wishes  repeatedly  expressed  by  some Member  States  in the annual 
Council  negotiations,  it  is proposed  to have - as for  the  1990 harvest  - a single 
amount  of  aid  applicable  to all  variety  groups,  including  experimental  strains. 

Fixing  the amount  of  aid  at  ECU  340/ha  slightly  favours  the aromatic  varieties 
compared  to the other  varieties. This  is  in  line with  the general  policy 
orientation  for  the sector. 

The cost  of  the proposal  to the EAGGF, Guarantee  Section,  is estimated  at 
ECU 9.71  mi I I ion.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, 

Having regard  to Council  Regulation  (EEC) No 1696/71 of 26 July 1971 on the 
common organization of the market  in hops^1), as  last amended by Regulation 
(EEC) No 2780/90(2), and  in particular  Article 12(7) thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal  from the Commission, 

Having regard to the opinion of the European Par Iiament^3), 

Whereas Article 12 of Regulation  (EEC) No 1696/71 provides that aid may be 

granted  to hop producers to enable them to achieve a fair  income; whereas the 

amount of this aid  is fixed per hectare and differs according  to varieties, 

taking  into account  the average return on the areas  in full production  compared 

with the average returns for previous harvests, the current  position of the 

market and trends  in costs; 

Whereas Article 12a of the same Regulation provides that aid to producers may 

also be granted  for areas cultivated with experimental  strains  in order to 

facilitate the development of new varieties, 

Whereas an examination of the results of the 1990 harvest  shows the need to fix 

aid for groups of varieties of hops cultivated  in the Community; whereas aid to 

producers shall  also be granted  for areas cultivated with experimental  strains;

1.  Introduction 

Article  11 of  Regulation  (EEC) No  1696/71  requires  the Commission  to 
present  to the Council  an annual  report  on  the production  and  marketing 
of  hops.  The  purpose of  this  report  is to provide  information on 
trends  in production, prices and  demand. 

This  report»  which  is the 21st  annual  report  presented  by  the 
Commission, outlines  the main  events  in the  1991  harvest  year. 

The Commission  proposes  that  hop producers  should  once more  be  granted 
aid  to supplement  their  Incomes. 

2.  1991  Harvest 

2.1. Wprld  situation 

2.1.1. Product ion 

At  a total  of 93,272 ha worldwide,  the area under  hops  in 1991  has 
increased  compared  to 1990  (see Annex, Table  1 ).  However,  In practice 
it  is not  possible  to establish  the exact  size of  this area, since  for 
a number  of major  hop  producing  countries such  as  the CIS, China or 
Romania, only  estimated  figures are available.  These countries  are 
politically  so closed  off  that  no  reliable  figures can  reach  the 
outside or  no data  are available  as a result  of  the  lack of  internal 
stat ist ics. 

With  few exceptions,  the area under  hops  increased  or  remained  stable 
in all  producer  countries.  However, a big  increase  (1,655 ha) was 
noticed  in the USA which  corresponds  to 11.53% more  than  in 1990. 

Although  not  very  significant  in absolute  terms, areas  in Portugal  and 
Ireland decreased  by  30% and  50% respectively. 

Among  the members of  the  IHGC (International  Hop Growers  Convention) 
slight  decreases were noticed  in Poland,  Hungary  and Bulgaria.  It 
seems  that  Romania  also decreased  the hop area  by  150 ha. 

~  2 -

(PCUL/EN/1139) 

It should  bo mentioned  thst  Table  1 of  the Annex  looses a bit  different 
from  the corresponding  Tab!a  1 of  the  report  relating  to th  19S0 
iiarvesi. 
Indeed,  two big  hop producing  countries arg  now in-^tit ioncri 
separately,  i.e. Slovsnia  (separately  from Yugoslavia) and  the  Ukraine 
(separately  from  the CIS).  These  two countries  are now  full  Members of 
On  the contrary,  figures  for  sx-QDR  (German  Democratic 
the  i.H.G.C. 
Republic) are now  included  in the  figures  for  Gern<.-r.y.  For  the  firs" 
time, figures  arc now available  for  New  Zealand. 

At about  2,520,357 ztr , the  1991  harvest  was  15%  (329,38<"* ztr) higher 
than  the  1990 harvest  and  also  higher  by  5.48% than  the  average 
calculates for  trie past  twenty  years  (see Annex, Table  5 ).  The  alpha 
acid production  was high  and well  above  the  long-term  average 
(8,746  tonnes compared  to the average of 7,357 tonnes, which  Is  18.88% 
higher) at 6.94% aiph* acid.  The Community Member  States' production 
of  alpha  acid  rose by more  than 50% compared  to  1990 and  represents 
more  than one  third of  the world  production. 

The beer  output  tendency  is characterized  by a worldwide  zero  growth 
(the maximum  possible  increase being  0.5%)  and  is around  1,145  to  1,150 
million  h!  (see Annex, Table 6 ).  To  reach  this output, t.ha amount  of 
alpha  acid needed  would  be between 7578S tonnes and 7,820 tonnes 
respectively  (average 7,800 tonnes) fer a hopping  rate of 6.3 g.  alpha 
acid  per  hi.  This would mean  that  for  it\e  first  time since  1987, trere 
s.re enough  hops on  the market  for  the beer  production  worldvide  and 
that  there will  be a surplus production of  about  1,000  tonnes of  alpha 
acid. 

2.1.2. Market  trends 

In the  light of  the previous consideration,  it  Is obvious  that  the 
marketing  year  1991/1992 was extremely  quiet. 

Contract  prices and  spot  prices on  the German market  were  very  near  to 
the  long  term  averages; prices on  the USA market went  up  by  20% 
compared  to the  long-term average. 

2-2. Commun11y 

2.2.1. Production  structure 

Ac  in the agricultural  sector  in general, structural  change  in hop 
growing  continued-  At  present, 6,250 farms  in the Community  produce 
hops  (see Table  1 ), I.e. about  4.46% down on  1990.  Over  the sam© 
period, the average size of  the area under  hops per  farm  Increased  from 
4.0  ha  to 5.27  ha.

2.2.2 Product Ion 

At a total of 28,560.17 ha, the area under hops  in the Community  in 
1991 was 2,613.71  ha (10%) higher than  in 1990 (see Annex, Table 1). 
This  increase  is mainly due to the  inclusion of the figures relating to 
the former German Democratic Republic.  However, the area  in West 
Germany has again  increased, as was the case  in all previous years, but 
this time the  increase  is hidden behind the  inclusion of the ex-GDR. 
Slight decreases  in production areas were noticed  in Spain, Portugal 
and  Ireland and slight  increases  in France, Belgium and the United 
KIngdom. 

Although  the prices paid to the producers are better, the area covered 
by aromatic varieties  increased only slightly  In the Community  as 
compared with 1990; this  is partly due to the fact  that  the varieties 
under production  in the former G0R are mainly classified as bitter 
varieties.  Aromatic varieties are now grown on 53% of the area under 
hops, the variety most  represented still being the Hersbrucker (48.58% 
of the area covered by aromatic varieties).  As already mentioned  in 
the previous report, this  level still represents a considerable 
potential  risk as the hop market depends heavily on the varietal policy 
of a small number of  large breweries. 

_ 4 » 

(PCUL/EN/1139) 

The proportion  of  the area  given over  to bitter  varieties  rose  from  41% 
to 45%  in 1991, mainly  because of  an  important  area  increase of  the 
Northern  Brewer  variety  (about  1,650  ha due  to  the annexation  of  DDR) 
and  the Target  variety  (about  400 ha). 
In the United  Kingdom,  there 
was an  increase of  about  300 ha of  this  latter  variety,  the  reason 
being  that  Target  is a super  alpha  variety-, yields and  prices are  good 
and  conversion  towards  it  is fully  in  line with market  trends. 
Spain  and  Portugal  there  are slight  decreases.  The  decrease  in 
Portugal  is taking  place  because of  varietal  conversion;  the area  has 
been grubbed  but  not  yet  replanted.  The Bullion  variety  which  was 
previously  cultivated  in the Community,  and  then phased  out,  reappeared 
again with  the annexation  of  GDR  (where about  170 ha  are  covered).  As 
regards  the other  varieties,  it should  be noted  that  the area  covered 
has doubled  compared  to the  1990 harvest, mostly  due  to  the annexation 
of  the GDR. 

In 

In terms of  quantity,  the  1991  harvest  was much  better  than  the  1990 
one and  reached  the  figure of  916,873 zentners, the average  yield  per 
ha being  32.12 zentner.  This  figure  is very  close  to that  of  1981 
which was considered  a  very  good  harvest, although  at  that  time  Spain, 
Portugal  and ex-GDR  were not  part  of  the Community. 
the production  is very good, with  good  alpha  acid  levels, the  Community 
average  for  the  three groups of  varieties being  6.78% alpha which  Is 
above  the  long-term  average  and which  gives an equivalent  of  3,111 
million  kg of  alpha  acids  for  the beer  production  in 1992 and  an  alpha 
output  per  ha of  108.94 kg/ha. 

The  quality  of 

2.2.3. Sales and  prices 

For  the  first  time  for more  than a decade, average prices of  hops  sold 
under  contract  and  hops sold without  contracts  (spot) are  very  close 
(166.85 ECU/zentner  under  contract  and  165.08 ECU/zentner  for  spot 
sales. 

About  one quarter  of  the  1991  harvest  was sold without  contract  (see 
Annex, Table 8 ).  The  figures  for  1991  show  a drastic decrease  in the 
prices of  hops sold on  the  free market;  In Germany,  France  and  Belgium 
these prices dropped  by half  compared  with  the prices paid  for  the  1990 
harvest. 

For  sales under  contract, prices do not  show such  big  variations which 
is explained  within  the context  of  forward  contracts.

(PCUL/EN/1139) 

Most  of  the varieties which  obtained  the best  prices  (considerably 
above  the EEC average,  some of  them  by about  30%) - both  under  contract 
and  for  spot  sales -  are  to be  found  in the group of  aromatic 
varieties.  It should  be noted  that  the high  quality  Tettnanger,  Spa It 
and  Saaz varieties have maintained  a high  price  level  over  the past  few 
years.  This  indicates  that  brewers - although becoming  more  flexible 
in terms of  varieties  - are still  not  indifferent  to  the  variety 
question.  The  Perle  variety  has become  very  popular  with many  brewers 
as an alternative  to Hersbrucker  since  it  Is more  reliable  in alpha 
acid.  Perle  is one of  the  few varieties whose  spot  price  is well  above 
the contract  price. 

The  price  situation  in the UK was very  favourable  this year  compared 
with  the other  Member  States  and  also  in comparison  with  the  previous 
year.  Spot  prices  are  still  at  an attractive  level  whereas  contract 
prices  have  improved  over  those  for  1990, basically  because  Target 
which  is about  to become  the  leading  variety  in the UK  has been  much 
sought  after  due  to  its good  quality. 

Out  of  the 916,873  zentner  produced  in 1991, 1,774 zentner  were  not 
sold, which  represents  0.19%.  The majority of  these  quantities are 
located  in the United  Kingdom  for  varieties which  have  higher  than 
average  contract  prices and  sometimes  spot  prices  too. 

The  1991  campaign  was  characterized  by a very  quiet  market;  the prices 
remained  rather  stable  up  to the end  and when  they  increased  there  was 
no  real  impact  on  the  returns because most  of  the production  had 
already  been  sold. 

In fact  it was expected  that  demand  would  have been  higher  than  the 
production,  as  it  is known  statistically  there  Is a shortage of  hops 
for  beer  production.  This should  have given  rise  to higher  prices but 
this was not  the case  as  the breweries  became more  and more  flexible 
with  regard  to the varieties  to be used  and  their  origins  -  technicians 
being  able  to change  the hopping  rate  (quantities of  hops needed) and 
the cooking  processes  according  to the new needs. For  instance, at  the 
end of  the campaign  the prices paid  for  the Hallertauer  variety  varied 
between  DM  300 and  DM  400/ztr  (ECU  127 - ECU  170) for  spot  prices  and 
between  DM 400 and  DM  420/ztr  (ECU  170 - ECU  178) for  contract  prices. 

On  the other  hand,  brewers  are no  longer  interested  in building  up 
large stocks  as  they  know  there  are always hops  to be  found on  the 
market.  Therefore  demand  and  supply  seemed  to be  in equilibrium. 
However,  it  is difficult  to make  forecasts about  the quantity of  acid 
needed  by  the breweries  as  they  always keep  some confidentiality  about 
these  figures.

2.2.4.  Returns 

Returns  in 1991  were  very  similar  to  those of  1990.  Only  a very  small 
decrease of  0.58% was noticed,  the average  return  per  hectare  in full 
production  being  5,618  ECU  in 1991, compared  to 5,651  ECU  in 1990. 

In fact, 1990 cannot  be considered  as a reference  year  as  returns  were 
abnormally  high  - at  least  in some Member  States -  due  to  the  very  high 
spot  prices.  In 1991  the  level  of  returns was  the same  but  for  another 
reason,  i.e. the  high  level  of  the quantity  harvested. 

Figures  for  1991  are  coming  back  to  "normality", with  the exception of 
Portugal  where  the  figures are  very  low and  the United  Kingdom  where 
the  figures are  relatively  high  (see Table  3 ).  In Portugal,  the  total 
production  was  sold  at  a very  low spot  price  i.e. one  third  of  the 
average  price  for  the bitter  varieties. 

At  Community  level  returns  are  the highest  for  the aromatic  varieties 
at  5,854 ECU/ha  in full  production, which  is an  increase of  3.37% 
compared  with  the previous  harvest. 
in the United  Kingdom  (+ 28.4%),  the varieties which  did  best  being  the 
Bramling Cross, Goldings  and  Progress  varieties  (see Annex, Table  9) . 

The biggest  increase was noticed 

Heavy  decreases  in returns were  noticed  for  the aromatic  varieties  in 
France  (-  2 5 % ), the  reason  being  that  for  the Strisselspalt  variety, 
which  is the principal  variety  in France, prices were  somewhat  lower 
and  yields  dropped  by about  6  ztr/ha  which  is equal  to one  fifth. 
decrease  in Belgium  was even worse  (-  57%) because  large parts of  the 
production were  sold  without  contracts  at  prices which  were well  below 
the Community  average  for  these  varieties  (173.89  ECU/ztr). 

The 

The  returns  for  the bitter  varieties  decreased  by  229  ECU/ha  which  is 
4.06  less than  in 1990.  The  biggest  decreases were  noticed  in France 
(-  3 5 % ), Belgium  (-  4 1 % ), Ireland  (-  32%) and  Portugal  (-  4 8 % ).  The 
privileged  position of  the United  Kingdom  in terms of  returns  for  the 
bitter  varieties  (+ 29% compared  to  1990) comes  from  the  super  alpha 
Target  variety  which  seems  to be a winner  on  the market. 

For  the other  varieties, mostly  located  in Germany,  returns  decreased 
by more  than a  third  (-  36.96%) due, on  the one  hand,  to very  bad 
yields  (11.98 ztr/ha) and on  the other  hand  to the  fact  that  more  than 
half of  the varieties  (462 ha compared  to  679 ha) are experimental 
varieties  from which  one  cannot  expect  full  productivity  and 
accordingly good  prices. 

This has only  a negligible effect  on  the overall  average  level  of 
returns  to producers  as a result  of  the small  area  involved.

3.  The common  organization  of  the market  in hops 

3.1  Community  policy on  the  hop market 

In 1971  a common  organization  of  the market  in hops was  established 
by  Regulation  (EEC) No  1696/71.  The aim was  to  improve  product 
quality  and  safeguard  the  livelihood of  hop growers.  Since  no 
special  arrangements were made  for external  trade or  intervention 
quite  deliberately  when  the market  organization  was  set  up,  the 
Community  hop  sector  Is highly  exposed  to competition on  the world 
market. 

The essential  aspects of  the basic Regulation, which were  dealt 
with  in greater  detail  by  subsequent, more  specific  Council  and 
Commission  regulations, comprises  rules  for  the marketing of  hops 
via a certification procedure  and  a forward  contract  system,  for 
the  recognition and  promotion of  producer  groups, and  for  trade 
with  non-EEC countries.  The Regulation also  lays down  aid 
arrangements  for Community-grown  hops. 

The Community  has  two main  financial  responsibilities  in this 
sector.  Firstly,  frequent  use  is made of  the arrangements  whereby 
aid  per  hectare  is granted  to producers with  unsatisfactory 
returns.  For  the  1990 harvest  year, aid  per  hectare was granted  at 
a  rate of  ECU  340 for  aromatic  varieties, for  bitter  varieties  and 
for other  varieties.  Secondly, special  aid  is granted  under 
Regulation  (EEC) No 2997/87  to encourage  growers  to convert  to 
varieties more  suited  to market  requirements  (see also point 3.2). 

In addition  the Community  makes a contribution  towards  the 
promotion of  newly  founded  producer  groups at  the  Initial  state 
provided  national  aid  is also granted  for  this.  However,  this 
measure  is now of  little significance  since - with  the exception of 
the  territory  of  the  former  GDR  - almost  all  hop growers  In the 
Community  now belong  to a recognized  producer  group.  Of  course 
this does not  exclude  the possibility  of  new groups being  founded 
from  time  to time  in the  future as a result  of  restructuring  and 
reorganizat ion. 

-  12 -

(PCUL/EN/1139) 

3.2 Aid for varietal  conversion 

The  long-standing  imbalance between supply and demand  for most 
bitter varieties and the resultant problems for hop growers in 
certain areas of the Community  led the Council  to adopt special 
measures for the hop sector  in 1987. 

Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87  introduced special  aid amounting to ECU 
2 500/ha - subject to a max Imum area of 800 ha per Member  State -
to be granted to recognized producer groups who undertake to 
implement  a plan to convert areas under bitter varieties to 
aromatic or super-alpha varieties. 

In June 1989 the Council adopted Regulation  (EEC) No 1809/89 
amending Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 with a view to extending the 
number of growers qualifying  for aid under  the varietal  conversion 
programme.  The amended criteria now allow special  aid to be 
granted throughout  the Community  and not  Just  In certain areas, as 
was originally provided for.  A further restriction  laying down 
that producer groups could take part  in the conversion programme 
only  if their total area did not  increase  in the period 1986 to 
1988 was also  lifted.  The extension of the duration of the 
programme  from 31 December  1990 as originally provided  for to the 
end of 1992 gives the producer groups more time to  implement  their 
conversion plans. 

A further change was  introduced by Regulation  (EEC) No 3837/90, 
extending the time  limit for  implementation of the conversion 
programme  in the case of Spain by a further  two years, I.e. up to 
the end of 1994.  This amendment  became necessary when many hop 
growers, whose  land at the time was  Involved  in a reparcelIing 
project, made  It known that they were prepared to take part  in the 
varietal  conversion programme.  However, both measures. I.e. 
reparcelIing and subsequent  varietal  conversion, cannot be carried 
out  In the time previously provided for. 

-  13 -

(PCUL/EN/1139) 

The Community  varietal  conversion programme has been very well 
received by hop growers.  All  hop-growing Member  States are taking 
advantage of  it with the exception of  Ireland.  Some of the 
varietal  conversion programmes submitted have been revised several 
times, above all to comply with requests for further areas to be 
included  (see Table 5 ). 

In the main, the programmes submitted by the  Individual Member 
States provide for the grubbing up of the traditional bitter 
varieties Brewer's Gold and Northern Brewer, which are finding It 
Increasingly difficult to compete with the American super-alpha 
varieties on the world market.

4.  Conclusions 

In view of  the above analysis of  the present  state of  the  Community 
hop market,  the Commission  proposes  that  income aid  be granted  to 
growers  in respect  of  the  1991  harvest. 

This proposal  means a status quo  in the average  level  of  aid  to 
producers as compared  with  the  1990 harvest. 

In addition, pursuant  to Article  12a of Regulation  (EEC) 
No  1696/71, the Commission  proposes  that  aid be granted  also  for 
areas given over  to experimental  varieties at  the same  rate as  that 
planted with  "other" varieties. 

The possibility of granting  aid  to producers  for  experimental 
varieties was  introduced  in 1990 when  the Council  adopted 
Regulation  (EEC) No 2780/90.  This applies  to areas  farmed  by  hop 
growers on which experimental  varieties are cultivated  In 
cooperation with  a research  institute.  The objective of  this 
Regulation  Is to promote  the breeding of  new  varieties, which  must 
be carried out  continuously  in order  to maintain  the 
competitiveness of  hop growing  in the  Community.

The Commission  proposes  the  following  rates of  aid:

This  proposal  would  mean  a status  quo  In the  average  rate of  aid  to 
ECU  340/ha, compared  to  1990. The  cost  of  this proposal  to  the 
EAGGF  Guarantee  Section  is estimated  at  ECU 9.71  million.
