                      COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )

 The purpose of this proposal is to fix the minimum price to be paid by the
potato starch manufacturer to the potato grower for the I980/8I marketing
year at 237.22 ECU.
The prioe proposed is based on two hypotheses ; first , that the average
threshold prioe for maize in I980/8I will "be inoreased by the same percentage
as that proposed for the target prioe (+ 3,75$) and , second , that the pro­
duction refund in I980/8I will be reduced by one third as proposed by the
Commission . This will have the effect of increasing the maize supply price
by 8.3$. It is proposed that the minimum price for the quantity of potatoes
required for 1 ton of staroh should be increased by the same percentage
from the present 219,04 ECU to 237*22 ECU* The total return to the potato ;
grower (minimum prioe pluJ refund) would , as a result , be increased from
252.13 ECU to 259,28 ECU. or Taj 2 , 8$.
