                              Proposal for a
                             COUNCIL DECISION

                   coordinating agricultural research

 ---pagebreak---                    EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
 Article 5 of Regulation ( EEC ) No 1728/ 74 on the coordination of
 agricultural research provides that specific measures may take the
 form of joint projects or of coordination of activities and that
 these measures should relate to given research topics or areas .
 The Council Decision of 22 July 1975 had provided for the implementation
 of four specific measures concerning respectively :
- animal leucoses
- effluents from intensive stockrearing
- beef production
- the production of vegetable proteins
These specifice measures , concerning which the Commission has submitted
an interim report to the Council and the Parliament will terminate
on 31 December 1978 .
The Commission is submitting to the Council the attached programme
of specific measures to be carried out over the five-year period
commencing on 1 January 1979 .
In working out the attached five-year programme the Commission has
taken the following as a basis :
- new research requirements , resulting both from the development of
   the common agricultural policy and from the prospects for Community
   agriculture
- experience gained with Community coordination" of agricultural research
   during the initial stage , from which the lessons will have to be
   drawn for the period proper commencing in 1979     ^
- exchanges of views which it has had with the Standing Committee on
   Agricultural Research , whose members are responsible for the programming
   of agricultural research in their respective Member States , regarding
   the aims and trends of agricultural research in the Member States .
The common agricultural policy is faced with the complex , urgent and
vital problem of how to improve the income of farmers in all regions ,
but it is having to solve this problem in difficult economic circumstances ,
while all the time avoiding any further aggravation of the present market
situation and while taking account of the forthcoming enlargement of the
Community . In many regions the unfavourable structures within which
farms operate must be improved . Farmers must realise that they have a
chance to improve their productivity by rationalising their holding
and by cutting back their production costs .
Apart from the removal of such obstacles to intra-Community trade as
 ---pagebreak---    inspections for animal and plant diseases , the forthcoming five-year
   research coordination programme should give priority to the socio-
   structural problems and to the most efficient use of natural resources
   and energy, due account being taken of the outlets available for
   production and special emphasis being laid on the problems of the
   least-favoured regions , especially the Mediterranean regions .
4. The trial period which is now coming to a close has shown the Commission :
   - that coordination cannot be achieved and made truly operational
      within less than five years ;
   - that coordination should be more flexible in nature ; its purpose
      can be achieved more comprehensively and more economically if , during
      the programme , the emphasis can be shifted from certain aspects or
      measures to others , with the active participation of the Standing
      Committee on Agricultural Research acting as a "Management Committee ";
   - that the objective of coordination can be attained by reducing the
      number of projects jointly financed under each specific measure and
      by increasing the number and intensity of the coordinated activities .
      This approach has two advantages : the institutes and centres taking
      part are better prepared to continue their research one Community
      coordination , which can only be temporary , has ceased and the budgetary
      costs of the specific measures can be kept down . On the other hand ,
      a heavier burden has to be borne by the Commission , which has to
      coordinate numerous institutes and research workers on a wider scale
      and more intensively .
5. In view of these considerations , the Commission is proposing to the
   Council that a coordination programme be adopted covering the period
   1979-1983 and comprising the following measures :
   i     land use and rural development
   ii    Mediterranean agriculture
   iii   agricultural waste and effluents from intensive stockrearing
   iv    animal pathology
   v     improving the productivity of European beef herds,
   vi    biological and integrated pest control
   vii   methods of improving plant resistance to disease and environmental
         pressures
   viii Agro-food research
   ix    elm disease :  this is a pilot scheme for coordinating research
         into tree diseases
   x     improvements in the production of plant proteins .
 ---pagebreak---  6.  These ten specific programmes are in Line with the following four
     objectives of the common agricultural policy :
     a . socio-structural objectives , ( 1 , 2 , 3 )
     b . removal of obstacles to intra-Communi ty agricultural markets ( 4 )
     c . efficiency of production ( 5 , 6, 7 , 8 , 9 )
     d . alternative products ( in parti cular , the-improvement of fodder
         production ) ( 10 ).
 7.  Annex I sets out , in respect of each specific measure , the main lines
     on whi h the coordination of research will be based .      The Commission
     drew up these guidelines at the end of 1977 , following an exchange
     of views with the Standing Committee on Agricultural Research . They
     will , however , be defined in a more precise and detailed manner before
     the end of 1978 after another exchange of views with the Committee ,
     assisted by groups of experts set up for this purpose .
       ι
 8.  The current programme of work requires expenditure of some 3.5 million EUA
     per year . For the 1979-1983 five-year programme , the total estimates
     amount to 18 602 000 EUA , i.e. a yearly average of 3.7 million EUA .
     Thus , since the number of measures to be undertaken has more than
     doubled and since research costs are steadily increasing , the Commission
     is keeping within previous financial limits . This will mean very
     careful selection of the research projects for which Community financing
     will be made available under each programme .
     Annex II sets out the detailed estimates by year and by measure .
 9.  Annex III gives precise figures for the staff numbers necessary to
     put this proposal into practice .
10 . It i\S proposed that the Council adopt , in accordance with Article 5
     of Regulation ( EEC ) No 1728 / 74 of 27 June 1974 , the attached Decision
     concerning " joint research programmes and programmes for coordinating
     agricultural research ".

                     COUNCIL DECISION
 adopting joint research programmes and programmes for coordinating
 agricultural research .
 THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
 Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
 and in particular Article 43 thereof ,
                                                      1
 Having regard to the proposal from the Commission
 Having regard to the Opinion of the European Parliament ^,
 Whereas Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 1728 / 74 of 27 June 1974 on the
 coordination of agricultural research ( 3 ) provides for coordination at
 Community level of national agricultural research projects , in order to
 contribute towards attaining the objectives of the common agricultural
poli cy ;
Whereas Article 5 of the above Regulation provides that the Council is
to decide upon specific measures for the coordination of research
 activities so as to allow rational organization of means employed, efficient
use of results and the orientation of such work towards the aims of the
 common agricultural policy , as well as the implementation of joint projects
designed to second or supplement work undertaken in the Member States in
fields which are of particular importance to the Community ;
Whereas numerous regions of the Community are lagging behind in development
and there are serious problems , particularly in the Mediterranean regions
and certain less favoured areas within the meaning of Council Directive
75 / 268/ EEC of 28 April 1975 ( 4 ), whereas measures must be taken in respect
of these less-favoured areas so as to enable better use to be made of the
human potential and to encourage a general mobilization of all means likely
to increase the return from the land , having regard in particular to its
 capacity for crop and livestock production and the possibility of recycling
waste from the agricultural and food industries , by defining crop-growing
and livestock-rearing methods appropriate to the region ; whereas the
prospect of enlargement of the Community makes it more urgent to find solutions
to these problems ; whereas these measures will contribute in their specific
ways to re-establishing natural balance guaranteeing harmony between individuals
and their environment ;
Whereas progress in research on the combating of diseases
will help to eliminate major obstacles to the harmonization of laws and to
trade , both within the Community and with non-member countries , in animals
and livestock products ; whereas the lack of a standard Community method for
diagnosing bovine leucosis constitutes an obstacle to the movement of breeding
cattle ; whereas , the existence in areas bordering on the Community of permanent
centres of African swine fever continually menaces Community pig farms ;
whereas measures to achieve a standard method for the diagnosis of bovine

 ---pagebreak---  leucosis and the control of swine fever outside the territory of the
Community therefore appear necessary ;     whereas attempts should also
be made to ensure the systematic elimination of losses among young cattle
by developing methods of controlling perinatal pathology ;
Whereas there is serious economic wastage in livestock , crop and food
production , due to management methods which have upset the physiological ,
pathological and ecological balance ;
Whereas , while a number of products are in surplus in the Community , there
is also a growing protein deficit leading to an increase in expensive
imports ; whereas fodder and cereals are under-utilized as a viable source
of animal feed ; whereas production of surplus products could be replaced
by the production of protein-bearers ; whereas encouraging the production
of fodder , protein-bearing plants , oil-bearing plants and long-strawed cereals
implies increasing protein yield per unit of existing or potential Community
crops ,
HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS :
                               Article 1
1.   The joint research programmes and the programmes to coordinate research
     concerning socio-structural objectives , the removal of obstacles to
     trade on intra-Community agricultural markets , the efficiency of
     production and alternative products ( improvement of fodder production ),
     as specified in . Annex I are hereby adopted .
2.   The programmes shall run for five years from 1 January 1979 .
3.   The amounts needed to finance them shall be entered each year in the
     general budget of the Communities .

Remarks
Council Regulation No 1728 / 74 entrusted the Commission with the coordination
of agricultural research at Community level . Decision 75 / 460 accordingly
provided for a series of specific common and coordinated programmes to
be carried out from 1975 to" 1978 , and the appropriations for these amounted
to 10 300 000 EUA over four years .
Since these programmes are coming to an end , the Commission - with the
agreement of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Research - has forwarded
a draft regulation to the Council adopting the new programmes to be .
undertaken between 1979 and 1983 .

       coordination of agricultural research - OJ No L 182 / 1 of 5 July 1974 .
4.  Description , aims and grounds :
   The Commission is to make a financial contribution towards research
   carried out jointly with Member States .
   The    objectives of the research programme 1979-1983 will be :
A. SOCIO- STRUCTURAL OBJECTIVES :
   Descritpion
   -   programme on the appropriate use of land and rural development ;
   -   programme on Mediterranean agriculture ;
   -   programme on agricultural waste and effluents from intensive
       stock-rearing .
   Aims and grounds
   A number of specific programmes will back up the implementation of the
   the Community Directives on mountain and hill farming , less-favoured
   areas , Mediterranean agriculture , land use , and relations between
   individuals and the environment :
   -   to reduce the difference between certain areas in social , economic
       and structural development ;
   -   to increase the employment rate and thus reduce under-employment
       and unemployment among the agricultural population ;
   -   to plan and implement measures to reduce the negative economic effects
       which enlargement could have on the less-favoured regions and the
       south of the Community ;
 ---pagebreak---                                          - 2 -
    -  to encourage fuller exploitation of fodder resources and their
        appropriate use by those species of animals reared in intensive units .
B.  EFFICIENCY OF PRODUCTION :
    Descript ion
    -  programme for improving the productivity of European beef herds ;
    -  biological pesticide p.rogramme - integrated pest-control programme ;
   -   programme on methods to improve plant resistance to disease and
       environmental pressures ;
   -   foodstuffs programme ;
   -   programme on elm disease .
   Aims and grounds
   Given the considerable waste caused in animal , crop and food production
   by methods which have led to physiological , pathological or ecological
   imbalances , more balanced systems should be evolved to limit the economic
    risk from new techniques and market cycles ; new commercial outlets should
   be found and new methods should be devised so that edibile by-products can
   be recovered or recycled for agricultural use , thus limiting or reabsorbing
    certain surpluses and reducing pollution in general .
C. REMOVAL OF OBSTACLES TO INTRA - COMMUNITY AGRICULTURAL MARKETS :
   Descritpion :
   Ammal pathology programme .
   Aims and grounds
   Research into epizootic diseases is a direct contribution towards
   improving farm productivity and helps to eliminate major obstacles to
   the approximation of laws and to intra-Community and extra-Community
   trade in animals and animal products ; the lack of a standard Community
   method for the diagnosis of bovine leucosis constitutes an obstacle to
   the movement of breeding cattle ; just outside Community territory there
   are permanent reservoirs of African swine fever which present a constant
   threat to pig farms in the Community ; a standardized method for the
   diagnosis of bovine leucosis and must therefore be devised and measures
   adopted for controlling swine fever outside the Community
   This will involve a programme on African swine fever so that a control
   and diagnosis system can be established for African swine fever outside
   Community territory , thus preventing any intra-Community contamination
   and ensuring the free movement of pigs and pigmeat .
        ogi'.al rr, ferial ( reference test ) is also to be supplied under contract
   so that , in the event of an epidemic , the Member States will have the
   material needed to make a diagnosis .
   A " bovine leucosis " programme will aim to devise a harmonized system
   for controlling this disease, thus ensuring the free movement of cattle
   and beef on the market .

D. ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS ( Improvement of fodder production )
   Description
   Programme to improve the production of vegetable proteins .
   Objectives and aims
   At Community level there are surpluses of some products but there TS
   also a growing protein deficit ; there is also under-uti lization of
   fodder resources and of cereals as a viable source of cattle food ;
   measures are thus required to promote and encourage fodder production
   and the growing of protein-bearing plants , oil-bearing plants and long-
   strawed cereal . An important contribution would be made if an increase were
   achieved in the unit protein yield of existing or potential crops which
   have been neglected in the Community for economic reasons now no longer
   valid because of the increase in energy costs ; such substitution and
   rationalization would reduce certain chronic agricultural surpluses and
   limit the excessive growth of imports which are costly to European
   agri culture .
   This will involve :
   -   the improvement of fodder and seed legumes , the principal oil-bearing
       crops , fodder grasses and the treatment and preservation of fodder
       grasses and legumes .
5. Method of calculation :
   On the basis of contractual participation and estimate established
   from the previous research programmes .
