Owing to the special circumstances under which pineapples
are harvested *, the processing of the product extends over
a rather long period . This period , delaying the granting of
production aid * gives rise to financial difficulties for the
processors * who are required to pay a minimum price to the
producers of fresh pineapples .
In order to avoid difficulties and to facilitate the processing
of pineapples it should be made possible to pay an advance before
payment of the minimum price to the producers .

Establishing a system of production aid for tinned pineapple makes the granting
of the aid to processors conditional upon payment of at least a minimum price
to producers ;.
Whereas owing to the special circumstances under which pineapples                ^
are harvested , the processing of the product extends over a comparatively
long period ; whereas the need to wait for the granting of the production aid
causes           financial difficulties for the processors , who are
required to pay a minimum price to the producers of the fresh pineapples ;
whereas, in order to facilitate the processing of pineapples harvested in
the Community,it should be made possible to pay an advance against
the aid before payment to producers of at least the minimum price ;
whereas the proper operation of this, system requires that the payment of
these - advances should be subject to the lodging of a security in order
to ensure observance of the conditions governing the granting of the
