OF THE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS SET OUT IN ANNEX II TO THE TREATY OR TO THE PRODUCTION OF THE PROCESSED PRODUCTS ALSO SET OUT THEREIN .
13 THE NET RESULT OF THOSE PROVISIONS IS THAT PROJECTS FOR IMPROVING THE PROCESSING AND MARKETING OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS FROM THE SAME FARM AS THAT IN WHICH THE INVESTMENT IS TO BE MADE ARE IN NO WAY EXCLUDED FROM THE SCOPE OF THE REGULATION IF THEY ARE CAPABLE OF MAKING AN EFFECTIVE CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS RATIONALIZING PROCESSING AND MARKETING STRUCTURES .
14 IT IS TRUE THAT ARTICLE 9 OF THE REGULATION PROVIDES THAT PROJECTS MUST CONTRIBUTE TO IMPROVING THE SITUATION OF THE BASIS AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION SECTOR IN QUESTION AND IN PARTICULAR MUST GUARANTEE THE PRODUCERS OF THE BASIC AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT AN ADEQUATE AND LASTING SHARE IN THE RESULTING ECONOMIC BENEFITS ; BUT THAT PROVISION , WHICH RECOGNIZES THAT PERSONS OTHER THAN THE PRODUCERS OF THE BASIC AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT MAY BENEFIT FROM THE AID PROVIDED FOR BY THE REGULATION , DOES NOT RESTRICT THE SCOPE OF THE REGULATION TO THAT CASE ALONE .
15 FURTHERMORE , IN THE PREAMBLE TO REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 355/77 IT IS STATED THAT THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE PROCESSING AND MARKETING OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS ENVISAGED BY THE REGULATION MAY BE ACHIEVED BY IMPROVING THE QUALITY AND PRESENTATION OF SUCH PRODUCTS , AND THE RATIONALIZATION OF PROCESSING AND MARKETING STRUCTURES FOR AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS MUST HAVE A LASTING BENEFICIAL EFFECT ON THE AGRICULTURAL SECTOR . PROJECTS SUBMITTED BY FARMERS MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THE ACHIEVEMENT OF SUCH AIMS IN SO FAR AS THEY MAY , ON COMPLETION , HAVE RESULTS WHICH , WHILST IMPROVING AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION , ARE CAPABLE OF AFFECTING PROCESSING AND MARKETING STRUCTURES IN A CERTAIN AREA OR ON A CERTAIN MARKET .
16 ACCORDING TO THE FILE SUBMITTED TO THE COMMISSION BY THE APPLICANT THE PROJECT AT ISSUE IS NOT PRINCIPALLY AIMED AT DEVELOPING THOSE ACTIVITIES WHICH ARE RELATED TO PRODUCTION OF THE BASIC PRODUCT , THAT IS TO SAY , GRAPES , BUT TO RATIONALIZING THE STORAGE AND PRESERVATION OF THE WINE , IMPROVING THE QUALITY , PRESENTATION AND MARKET PREPARATION OF WINE PRODUCTS AND SHORTENING THE MARKETING CHAIN . IT FOLLOWS FROM THE FOREGOING CONSIDERATIONS THAT SUCH EFFORTS TO RATIONALIZE ARE PRECISELY THOSE WHICH ARE COVERED BY REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 355/77 AND THAT IN PRINCIPLE THE PROJECT WHICH WAS SUBMITTED BY THE APPLICANT MUST BE CONSIDERED TO BE AN INVESTMENT PROJECT WITHIN THE MEANING OF ARTICLE 6 OF THAT REGULATION .
17 THAT BEING SO , IT MUST BE ESTABLISHED WHETHER ARTICLE 15 ( 2 ) OF THE REGULATION , WHICH EXCLUDES FROM THE SCOPE OF THE REGULATION PROJECTS WHICH ARE ELIGIBLE FOR COMMUNITY AID UNDER OTHER COMMON MEASURES , IS APPLICABLE IN THE PRESENT INSTANCE , AND IT MUST BE ASCERTAINED IN PARTICULAR WHETHER THE PROJECT SUBMITTED BY THE APPLICANT MAY BE CLASSED AS A MODERNIZATION PROJECT UNDER DIRECTIVE 72/159/EEC .
18 THE PURPOSE OF DIRECTIVE 72/159/EEC IS TO INITIATE THE REFORM OF AGRICULTURAL STRUCTURES .
