THE 2011 EAGF BUDGETARY PROCEDURE 

The  2011  budgetary  procedure  for  the  European  Agricultural  Guarantee  Fund 
(EAGF) and the corresponding amounts of appropriations involved at each stage of 
the procedure are summarised in the table presented in Annex 1. 

The 2011 EAGF budget was adopted by the Budgetary Authority on 15 December 
2010. The budget included commitment and payment appropriations amounting to: 

– 

– 

– 

EUR 42 508.3 million  and 
agricultural market measures and direct aids (policy area 05). 

to  EUR 42 509.0 million 

respectively 

for 

EUR  352.9 million  and  to  EUR 253.7 million  respectively  for  veterinary  and 
phyto-sanitary measures (policy area 17). 

EUR 30.0 million  and  to  EUR 25.8 million  respectively  for  fisheries  (policy 
area 11).

appropriations  is  due  to  the  fact,  that  for  certain  measures,  which  are  directly 
implemented  by  the  Commission,  differentiated  appropriations  are  used.  These 
schemes relate mainly to the promotion of agricultural products, to policy strategy 
and  coordination  measures  for  agriculture  as  well  as  to  fisheries  and  to  veterinary 
and phyto-sanitary measures.

REVENUE ASSIGNED TO EAGF 

On the basis of the rules of Article 34 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005 on 
the  financing  of  the  Common  Agricultural  Policy,  revenue  originating  from 
financial  corrections  under  conformity  clearance  decisions,  from  irregularities  and 
from  the  milk  levy  are  designated  as  revenue  assigned  to  the  financing  of  EAGF 
expenditure.  According  to  these  rules,  assigned  revenue  can  be  used  to  cover  the 
financing  of  EAGF expenditure incurred by the Member States. In the case where 
part of this revenue is not used, then, this part will be automatically carried forward 
to the following budget year.1 

The  2011  EAGF  Budget  included  both:  the  Commissions'  latest  estimate  on  the 
amount of appropriations, which would be needed in order to finance the expected 
expenditure for market measures and direct aids, and the estimates of the assigned 
revenue,  which  was  expected  to  be  collected  in  the  course  of  the  budget  year 
concerned and the carryover of the balance of assigned revenue left available from 
the previous budget year. In its proposal for the amount of EAGF appropriations for 
the  2011  Budget,  the  Commission  took  into  consideration  total  expected  assigned 
revenue and requested in 2011 a level of appropriations calculated by deducting the

Assigned revenue carried over has to be used first, this means before the appropriations voted by the 
Budgetary  Authority  or  the  assigned  revenues  generated  in  the  year  (Art  10  of  the  Financial 
Regulation).

Authority  adopted  the  new  EAGF  budget  whose  appropriations  included  the 
expected assigned revenue.  

At the time of establishment of the Budget for 2011, the Commission’s estimates for 
the available assigned revenue amounted to EUR 1 247.0 million. Specifically:

The  assigned  revenue  expected  to  be  generated  in  the  course  of  the  2011 
budget  year  was

EUR 600.0 million  and  EUR 88.0 million  were  expected  from  conformity 
clearance  corrections  and  from  irregularities  respectively.  The  receipts  from 
the milk levy were estimated at EUR 19.0 million.

EUR 500.0 million  was  assigned  to  the  operational  funds  for  producer 
organisations in the fruits and vegetables sector, and 

EUR 747.0 million to the single payment scheme.  

For  these  two  schemes,  the  Budgetary  Authority  eventually  voted  appropriations 
amounting  to  EUR 292.0 million  and  to  EUR  30 389.0 million  respectively,  in 
accordance  with  the  Commission’s  proposal.  The  sum  of  the  voted  appropriations 
and  the  assigned  revenue  mentioned  above  corresponds  to  a  total  estimate  of 
appropriations  required  of  EUR 792 million  for  the  operational  funds  for  producer 
organisations  in  the  fruits  and  vegetables  sector  and  EUR 31 136.0 million  for  the 
single payment scheme. 

In annex 2, which presents the 2011 budget’s provisional execution for the period to 
31  January  2011,  the  figures  of  the  budget  appropriations  for  the  fruits  and 
vegetables  sector  and  for  the  decoupled  direct  aids  sector  present  voted 
appropriations  for  these  two  schemes,  which  amount  to  EUR 491.1 million  and  to 
EUR 36 324.0 million  respectively,  without  taking  account  of  the  aforementioned 
assigned  revenue.  After  including  the  revenue  assigned  to  these  sectors,  the  total 
appropriations foreseen in the 2011 budget amount to EUR 991.1 million for fruits 
and vegetables and to EUR 37 071.0 million for decoupled direct aids.

REVENUE  ORIGINATING  FROM  THE  TEMPORARY  RESTRUCTURING  AMOUNTS 
(SUGAR SECTOR) 

The  temporary  restructuring  amounts  in  the  sugar  sector  are  treated  as  assigned 
revenue intended to finance the sugar restructuring aid and other aids foreseen in the 
Sugar  Restructuring  Fund.  For  three  marketing  years:  2006/07,  2007/08  and 
2008/09,  these  amounts  relating  to  the  sugar,  inulin  syrup  and  isoglucose 
quantitative quotas held by operators in each Member State were paid into the Fund. 
At the time of establishment of the 2011 budget an amount of EUR 1 015.0 million 
was expected to be carried over from the budget year 2010 into 2011.

COMMENTS ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 2011 EAGF BUDGET 

The  budget’s  provisional  implementation  level  for  the  period  16 October 2010  to 
31 January 2011 is presented in Annex 2. It is compared to the expenditure profile 
based  on  the  indicator,  which  was  established  on  the  basis  of  the  dispositions  of 
Article 20 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1290/2005. Below a brief commentary is 
presented  for  certain  budget  articles,  which  show  the  most  significant  divergences 
between the actual and the expected level of implementation of the 2011 budget: 

4.1.  Market measures 

The  uptake  of  appropriations  for  interventions  in  agricultural  markets  was  higher 
compared  to  the  level  of  the  budget's  voted  appropriations,  as  determined  by  the 
level of the indicator on 31 January 2011, by EUR 179.4 million. This divergence is 
primarily  attributed  to  the  wine  and  fruits  and  vegetables  sectors  (see  below  point 
4.1.2) as well as food programmes. At the same time, other sectors present in total a 
small under-implementation. 

4.1.1.  Food programmes (+EUR 22.1 million) 

The  faster  uptake  of  appropriations  compared  to  the  level  of  the  indicator  at  this 
point in time is a mirror picture of the under-execution on this budget line in 2010. 
This  reflects  the  fact  that  the  Member  States'  administrative  costs  linked  to  the 
management of the 2010 programmes  were only declared in 2011 budget year. At 
this  point  in  time,  the  Commission  considers  that  the  appropriations  will  be 
sufficient to cover the expected expenditure.  

4.1.2.  Fruit and vegetables (+ EUR 74.4 million in comparison with voted appropriations) 

This implementation level is attributable to the expenditure for the operational funds 
for  producer  organisations,  which 
the  budget’s  voted 
appropriations and by the revenue assigned to this scheme in the 2011 budget (NB: 
For  details  please  see  point  2  above).  This  implementation  level  is  the  result  of 
applying  the  indicator  for  the  period  to  31  January  2011  to  the  budget’s  voted 
appropriations, which do not include the revenue assigned to this sector.  

is  funded  both  by 

At  this  point  in  time,  the  Commission  considers  that  the  total  appropriations 
available  for  this  sector  will  be  sufficient  to  cover  the  expenditure  expected  to  be 
incurred by Member States in 2011. 

As from 2010, for the benefit of the reader, the Commission introduced footnote * to 
the provisional execution table which appears in annex 2. This footnote shows what 
the situation would be, had the indicator, as at 31 January 2011, been applied to the 
total appropriations, which are expected to be available in order to fund this sector. 
As it is pointed out in point 2 above, the total funding expected to be available for 
this sector is composed of the budget’s voted appropriations of EUR 491.1 million 
and  of  the  revenue  assigned  to  this  sector  which  is  estimated  to  amount  to  EUR 
500.0 million. Therefore, had the indicator been applied to the total funding of EUR 
991.1 million expected to be available for this sector, an under-execution of – EUR 
55.7 million would appear.

   EN 

 
This  under-execution  is  related  to  operational  funds  for  producers'  organisations 
which  have  a  slightly  slower  payment  rhythm  than  in  the  previous  years  and  to 
School Fruit Scheme, which due to relative novelty of the measure does not follow 
as  yet  a  defined  execution  pattern.  They  are  both  considered  to  be  of  a  temporary 
nature.  

4.1.3.  Products of the wine-growing sector (+EUR 96.4 million) 

When  compared  to  the  level  of  budget  appropriations  and  theoretical  execution 
profile  pointed  out  by  the  indicator  on  31  January  2011,  current  over-execution  is 
due to the acceleration of the rhythm of payments by Member States primarily for 
the  national  support  programmes  for  the  wine  sector  (mainly  in  investment, 
promotion as well as restructuring and conversion of vineyards). This faster rhythm 
does not constitute any risk of exceeding the budgetary appropriations, as they are 
based on the financial ceilings established by the legislation for these measures.  

4.1.4.  Milk and milk products (-EUR 10.2 million) 

When  compared  to  the  level  of  budget  appropriations  and  theoretical  execution 
profile  pointed  out  by  the  indicator  on  31  January  2011,  an  under-execution  is 
observed.  It  is  mainly  related  to  the  School  Milk  Scheme  whose  appropriations  in 
the  New  Draft  Budget  were  increased  by  EUR  10 million  as  compared  to  the 
Amending  Letter.  This  increase  in  the  budget  is  not  reflected  in  Member  States’ 
execution.  

4.2. 

Direct aids  

The uptake of appropriations for direct aids compared to the level pointed out by the 
indicator on 31 January 2011 was lower by EUR 328.5 million.  

4.2.1.  Decoupled  direct  aids 
appropriations) 

(-EUR  231.3  million 

in  comparison  with  voted 

The  total  credit  appropriations  available  for  the  needs  of  this  sector  amount  to 
EUR 37 071 million including the foreseen revenue of EUR 747 million assigned to 
the Single Payment Scheme. (NB: for details, please see point 2 above). 

The  single  payment  scheme  (SPS)  presents  a  slight  under-execution.  This  scheme 
after a very fast up-take in the first two months of 2011 budget year slowed down 
slightly  in  January.  However,  the  Member  States  have  already  paid  till  now 
approximately 92% of the estimated needs in the budget as compared to 86% at the 
time in 2010.  

The  implementation  level  for  decoupled  direct  aids  is  also  attributable  to  the 
payments made by the Member States for the single area payment scheme (SAPS), 
where  a  significant  under-execution  as  compared  to  the  level  of  indicator  is 
observed.  While  for  the  most  of  the  Member  States  the  payment  rhythm  is  in  line 
with  established  patterns,  Bulgaria  until  the  end  of  January  has  not  made  any 
payments  and  significantly  lower  payments  were  made  in  Poland.  At  this  point  in 
time, the Commission considers that this situation is temporary.

As from 2010, for the benefit of the reader, the Commission introduced footnote * to 
the  provisional  execution  table  which  appears  in  annex  2.  This  footnote  shows 
which would be the situation had the indicator, as at 31 January 2011, been applied 
to the total appropriations which are expected to be available in order to fund this 
sector.  As  it  is  pointed  out  in  point  2  above,  the  total  funding  expected  to  be 
available  for  this  sector  is  composed  of  the  budget’s  voted  appropriations  of  EUR 
36 324.0  million  and  of  the  revenue  assigned  to  this  sector  which  is  estimated  to 
amount to EUR 747.0 million. Therefore, had the indicator been applied to the total 
funding  of  EUR  37 071.0  million  expected  to  be  available  for  this  sector,  then, 
under-execution of EUR 898.9 million would appear.  

4.2.2.  Other direct aids (-EUR 97.3 million) 

A slower rhythm of payments made by Member States can be observed for certain 
schemes (premiums for suckler cows, beef slaughter and for cotton) compared to the 
level pointed out by the indicator. At this point in time, this situation is expected to 
be temporary. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  2010  calendar  year  was  the  first  year  of  payment  of  the 
coupled specific support measures (Art 68). Due to no prior history of this measure, 
the current profile for this budget line distributes the expenditure linearly until the 
end of June, whereas the Member States have made more than 45% of the payments 
foreseen for 2011 budget year in the period from November to January. This does 
not  constitute  any  risk  to  the  availability  of  budgetary  appropriations,  as  these  are 
based on the financial ceilings established by the legislation for the specific support 
measures.  

4.3. 

Audit of agricultural expenditure 

4.3.1.  Accounting clearance of previous years’ accounts (+EUR 74.8 million) 

The  current  implementation  level  results  from  the  comparison  of  the  clearance  of 
accounts corrections already made with the level of the corresponding indicator as 
of  31 January  2011.  However,  it  should  be  noted  that  in  line  with  the  legislative 
timeframe  not  all  the  accounting  clearance  decisions  expected  within  this  budget 
year have been taken yet.  

It should be pointed out that the Commission, in its Amending Letter for 2011, had 
proposed corrections amounting to – EUR 72.0 million. The final amount included 
in the 2011 budget was – EUR 272.0 million. 

At this point in time the Commission considers that the expected corrections from 
its  accounting  clearance  decisions  and  from  the  non-respect  of  aid  payments' 
deadlines by the Member States would not be sufficient to cover the extra-ordinary 
amount of – EUR 200.0 million. The Commission would need to cover the resulting 
significant  shortfall  of  negative  budget  appropriations  by  positive  budget 
appropriations in order to close this budget item in 2011.

4.4.1.  Food and feed safety, animal health, animal welfare and plant health (+EUR 110.1 

million) 

The indicator for this budget item has been calculated on the basis of the planning of 
the  budget  commitments  by  responsible  services  of  the  Commission.  It  proves 
however,  that  the  preparation  and  adoption  of  work  programmes  in  this  area  was 
faster  in  2011  than  originally  foreseen,  which  results  in  acceleration  of  budgetary 
the 
commitments.  At 
appropriations will be sufficient to cover the expected expenditure.

the  revenue  from  corrections  based  on  conformity  clearance  decisions 
amounted to EUR 236.1 million with additional amounts expected by the end 
of the budget year; 

the  revenue  from  irregularities  amounted  to  approximately  EUR 57.8 million 
with additional amounts also expected by the end of the budget year, and  

at this point in time, most of the revenue from the milk levy has been collected 
and  it  amounts  to  approximately  EUR 20.4 million  exceeding  slightly  the 
initial estimate of EUR 19.0 million; 

finally,  contrary  to  the  initially  estimated  amount  of  EUR 540.0 million,  the 
amount  of  assigned  revenue  eventually  carried  over  from  2010  into  2011 
amounted to EUR 905.1 million. 

Therefore,  the  amount  of  assigned  revenue  available  for  financing  EAGF 
expenditure, on 31 January 2011, amounts to EUR 1 219.4 million. At this point in 
time,  the  Commission  estimates  that  the  amount  of  assigned  revenue  still  to  be 
collected  amounts  to  EUR 392.7 million  (estimated  assigned  revenue  to  be 
generated in the 2011 budget of EUR 707.0 million of which EUR 314.3 million has 
been collected). 

6. 

IMPLEMENTATION  OF  REVENUE  ORIGINATING  FROM  THE  TEMPORARY 
RESTRUCTURING AMOUNTS (SUGAR SECTOR) 

In  line  with  the  legislation  no  new  temporary  restructuring  amounts  have  been 
collected  from  the  Member  States  since  November  2009.  Therefore,  the  total 
assigned  revenue  available  to  the  Sugar  Restructuring  Fund  equals  the  amount 
carried over from the budget 2010, which, contrary to the initial estimates, amounts 
to  EUR  1 044.8  million  (higher  than  the  EUR  1 015.0  million  in  the  2011  budget 
due to lower payments than expected made at the end of 2010).

7. 

IMPLEMENTATION OF SUGAR RESTRUCTURING FUND 

As  of  the  end  of  January  2011,  Member  States  had  made  insignificant  payments 
(NB:  payments  of  only  EUR  5.7  million)  for  aids  concerning  restructuring 
measures, for diversification aids or for aids to sugar refining.  

8. 

CONCLUSIONS 

The provisional execution of the 2011 EAGF budget's appropriations, for the period 
up  to  31  January  2011,  shows  that  monthly  reimbursements  to  Member  States 
exceeded the profile for budget execution based on the indicator, by approximately 
EUR 34.5 million.  Assigned  revenue  amounting  to  EUR 1 219.4  million  has  been 
collected  and  an  amount  of  EUR  392.7  million  is  still  expected  to  be  collected  in 
2011. 

At this point it time, the Commission expects that the amount of assigned revenue 
which is available as well the one which will become available, in the course of the 
year,  will  be  used  to  cover  the  funding  of  the  operational  funds  for  producer 
organisations  and  for  the  single  payment  scheme  as  originally  expected  when  the 
budget was established.  

As regards the increase of accounting clearance corrections by – EUR 200.0 million 
to a total of – EUR 272 million, the Commission will closely follow the evolution of 
the  budget’s  execution  in  order  to  see,  if  the  under-execution  in  other  parts  of  the 
budget will allow funding the part of this negative expenditure, which would not be 
covered by the Commission’s accounting clearance decisions and other corrections 
for non-respect of the aid payments’ deadlines by the Member States concerned.
