In Article 3: (a)  the following sentence is added to paragraph (2): 'However, these provisions shall not apply to land set aside pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No  2078/92 or Regulation (EEC) No 2080/92 counted for the purposes of the set-aside obligation if they  are incompatible with the environmental or afforestation requirements imposed by those two  Regulations.`; (b)  paragraph (5) is deleted. 3.  Article 8 is replaced by the following: 'Article 8 In the case of Portugal the compensation referred to in Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No  1765/92 in respect of the set-aside referred to in paragraph 1 of that Article shall be increased  by the amounts shown in the Annex hereto. Those amounts shall be financed in accordance with  Article 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3653/90. However, for the 1995/96 marketing year, the compensation for the area set aside in excess of the  area corresponding to the set-aside obligation shall be increased, up to a maximum of 15  % in  respect of rotational set-aside and 20  % in respect of other forms of set-aside, by the amounts  shown in the Annex.` Article 2 The last sentence of the third subparagraph of Article 4 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No  3887/92 is replaced by the following: 'However, the following uses shall be declared separately: -  production of forage intended for drying, whether artificially dehydrated or sundried, as  referred to in Council Regulation (EC) No 603/95  (*), -  environmental set-aside and afforestation pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2078/92 or Regulation  (EEC) No 2080/92 respectively, counted against the set-aside obligation. ` Article 3 This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the  Official Journal of the European Communities. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all  Member States. Done at Brussels, 21 August 1995.
