Article 13 ( 2 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) N° 805 /68 provides that every yea r ,
before 1 December , the Council , acting by a qualified majority on a
proposal from the Commission , shall draw up an estimate of young male
bovine animals which may be imported under the arrangements specified in
the said Article . This estimate is to take account , 'on the one hand , of ant
cipated Community supplies of young bovine animals intended for fattening
and , on the other , of the requirements of Community breeders .
                             Introduct ion
This estimate relates to the period 1 January to 31 December 1980 .-       •
It has been drawn up in the light - of factors known to the Commission and
on the basis \of current forecasts .                                          v
It is the outcome of an assessment of requirements in young male bovine
animals intended for fattening which the Community has imported from non-
m»rber countries in previous years , particularly in 1979 , and of the
foreseeable trend for 1980 of supplies and requirements in respect of
young male bovine animals intended for fattening in (the Community r

. Imports from non-member countries in previous years
  In previous years , the number of young male bovine animals intended
  for fattening imported into the Community has fluctuated around
  200 000 head .  ,                             , .  '   ;
  In 1978 and 1979, og account in particular of * fall in Community ' .
  supplies of young bovine animals for fattening , this figure was
  higher , standing at around 230 000 head .           ^          -
  It is estimated that in 1980 , following a slight increase in supplies of
  these animals in the Community , import requirements will be comparable
   to    this level .                     ^                     M
. Assessment of Community supplies for 1980
  2.1 . Following the increase in the number of breeding females ( cows
        and heifers ) anticipated for 1980 ( around 120 000 head ), a
        corresponding increase is expected in the number of births of
        calves during the same year ; the resultant increase in the
        available number of calves would be of the order of 100 000 head .
        Production over the year of male calves would therefore be up
        by around 50 000 head and would stand at around 14 250 000 head .
  2.2 . The number of slaughterings of male calves envisaged for 1980 ,
        on the basis of data collected from Member States , should be
        down on 1979 and be around 3 680 000 head .                 ; : .
        On the other hand , the number of male animals intended for
        breeding will probably " be slightly-.increased to - about 760.000 head .
 ---pagebreak---     2.3 . In the light of the information provided by Member States and of
          experience gained , it is expected that in 1980 the requirements
          of Community breeders in young male bovine animals for fattening
          will be 10 040 000 head , including animals lost and animals put
          to pasture .
                          »                         %  .
                                                                      \
3 . Estimate of the Community shortfall for 1980       ■'
    From the considerations set out under 2.2 . and 2.3 ./ it follows that
    the Community 's overall requirements in male calves will in 1980 be
    14 480 000 head . These requirements will be only partly satisfied
    by Community supplies of these animals which , according to 2.1 ., will
    stand at around 14 250 000 head . The foreseeable Community shortfall
    for 19£fj in male calves for fattening will therefore be around
    230 000 head to be imported from non-member countries .
                                Conclusion
On the basis of the considerations set out above , the estimate for young
male bovine animals intended for fattening which may be imported in 1980
under the arrangements provided for in Article 13 of Regulation ( EEC )
N° 805 / 68-   is      fixed at 230 000 head .

     OBSERVATIONS ; This does not concern a new measure , but one which was already-
                             applied in past years . Therefore the draft budget for 1980 takes
                             account of it .              -                                  .
