COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2009/94 of 27 July 1994 fixing for the 1994/95 marketing year the amount of the aid for the cultivation of certain varieties of grape intended for drying
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 of 24 February 1986 on the common organization of the market in products processed from fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 549/94 (2), and in particular Article  6 (6) thereof,
Whereas, pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 426/86, new aid arrangements in respect of specialized areas for the cultivation of sultanas, currants and muscatels took effect as from the 1990/91 marketing year; whereas these arrangements have  gradually replaced the system of production aid provided for in Article 6a;
Whereas, pursuant to the second subparagraph of Article 6a (1) of the abovementioned Regulation, the Community aid per hectare should be set at the level laid down in this Regulation;
Whereas the third subparagraph of Article 6 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 426/86 provides for the possibility to differentiate the amount of aid on the basis of the varieties of grapes and on other factors which may affect yield; whereas it is appropriate  to provide such a differentiation by a coefficient derived from the ratio of average yield by variety to total average yield; whereas in the case of sultanas provision should be made for further differentiation between areas affected by phylloxera or  replanted within the last five years, and other areas;
Whereas, however, it is appropriate to provide that areas having a yield lower than a threshold differentiated for the varieties concerned shall not be considered as specialized areas for the application of the aid arrangements; whereas, therefore, aid  shall not be granted for the cultivation of such areas;
Whereas it is necessary to determine the aid to be granted to producers who replant their vineyards in order to combat phylloxera under the conditions laid down in Article 6 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 426/86;
Whereas verification of the areas used for growing these grapes has revealed no overrun of the maximum guaranteed area fixed in Article 4 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2911/90 of 9 October 1990 laying down detailed rules of application for aid for  the production of certain varieties of grapes for drying (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1445/93 (4);
Whereas the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables has not delivered an opinion within the time-limit set by its chairman,
