In order to encourage action by trade and joint trade organizations to facilitate the adjustment of supply to market requirements, Community measures to improve quality may be taken in respect of silkworms falling within subheading No 01.06 C of the Common Customs Tariff and in respect of silkworm eggs falling within subheading No 05.15 B of the Common Customs Tariff.  2. The provisions of paragraph 1, in so far as they relate to the objectives set out in Article 39 (1) (a) of the Treaty, may be applied in connection with joint measures within the meaning of Article 6 (1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 729/702 of 21 April 1970 on the financing of the common agricultural policy.

However, the amount of the aid to be granted in respect of the 1972/73 rearing year shall be fixed by 1 June 1972.  2. The aid shall take the form of a specific amount per box of silkworm eggs used and shall be fixed at a level which helps to ensure a fair income for silkworm rearers, account being taken of the market situation in cocoons and raw silk, of foreseeable trends on that market and of import policy.  The aid shall be granted to silkworm rearers for each box of silkworm eggs used, on condition that:  - the boxes contain a minimum quantity of eggs, said quantity having yet to be specified, and  1 OJ No L 151, 30.6.1968, p. 16.  2 OJ No L 94, 28.4.1970, p. 13.   - the worms have been successfully reared.  3.
