Community rules provide for the granting of the subsidy for seeds processed in
the Community for incorporation in feedingstuf fs in respect of rapeseed only .
At present , the subsidy for sunflower seeds is granted only to those processed
for the production of oil . However , on account of their oil and protein
content , such seeds are also suitable for use directly in feedingstuf fs . In
view of the increase in production of sunflower seeds recorded in recent years
and the rise in demand for such seeds from the feed industry , the system of
aid provided for in Article 27 of Regulation No 136 /66 /EEC should be extended
to such sunflower seeds incorporated in feedingstuffs .
This amendment does not entail any increase in Community expenditure but
permits easier disposal of Community production by diversifying users and
reduces the risk of buying in .
This proposal is required for the operation of the market in oilseeds . It will
not lead to any adverse effects on the competitiveness of enterprises or on
employment .

Whereas the advantages of incorporating sunflower seeds in f eedingstuf fs are
becoming more and more evident ; whereas greater use of those products appears
highly desirable ; whereas the system of aid provided for in Article 27 of
Regulation No 136 / 66 / EEC should be extended to such seeds ; whereas the
arrangements laid down in Article 1 of Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 1594 / 83 of
14 June 1983 ( 3 ), as last amended by Regulation ( EEC ) No 2132 / 87 ( 4 ), should
be amended accordingly ,

             sunflower seeds at the oil mill or the manufacture of the
             feedingstuf f s and the incorporation of the colza rape and sinflower seeds
             at the feed mill to ensure that the subsidy is received only for
             seeds which qualify for it ".

 4 . Objectives : To extend the system of aid under which sunflower seeds processed

5.0.1 Estimated expenditure
5.1.1 Estimated receipts
5.2 Method of calculation : As regards sunflower seeds the measure has no financial
                                   implications since it is not liable to alter the overall
                                   quantity of seeds qualifying for the subsidy but only
                                   their distribution between the various uses .
                                   Possible effects in replacing other products in feeding -
                                   stuffs appear negligible in the first few years since it
                                   is anticipated that there will be slight use of sunflower
                                   seeds for those purposes during the initial period .
6.0 Can the project be financed from appropriations entered in the relevant chapter
      of the current budget ?                                                          yes /no
