It should be noted at the outset that in the Community salmon farming industry, as elsewhere, there is a long and relatively inflexible production cycle leading to harvesting and that, once harvested, the farmed salmon must be sold immediately since they can only be stored for more than a few days if frozen.
Na začetku je treba opozoriti, da je v industriji gojenja lososa v Skupnosti, tako kot drugod, dolg in relativno neprilagodljiv proizvodni cikel, ki vodi k odprodaji, in k temu. da ko je enkrat losos ulovljen, mora biti tudi prodan takoj, ker je lahko zamrznjen shranjen le nekaj dni.
Freezing is expensive, and in any event, there is limited freezing capacity in the Community.
Zamrzovanje je drago, poleg tega pa so v Skupnosti zmogljivosti zamrzovanja omejene.
In consequence, the level of production must be planned at least two years in advance and, once planned, cannot be altered except at the margins.
Posledično je treba proizvodnjo načrtovati vsaj dve leti vnaprej in se tega načrta tudi držati, razen v mejnih vrednostih.
Therefore, oversupply has a delayed effect on production, but an immediate and severe effect on prices.
Zato ima prekomerna dobava zapoznel učinek na proizvodnjo, vendar takojšen in resen učinek na cene.
Analysis of the situation of the Community Producers

Consumption
Poraba
Consumption (t)
Poraba (t)
Consumption of the product concerned in the Community was provisionally established on the basis of the total production by all producers in the Community and total imports of the product concerned into the Community as reported by Eurostat, less European Community exports.
Poraba zadevnega izdelka v Skupnosti je bila začasno ugotovljena na podlagi skupne proizvodnje vseh proizvajalcev Skupnosti in vsega uvoza zadevnega izdelka v Skupnost, na podlagi podatkov, ki jih navaja Eurostat, vendar brez upoštevanja izvoza Skupnosti.
Between 2000 and 2003, consumption in the Community increased by 19,7 % from 507705 tonnes to 607728 tonnes.
Med leti 2000 in 2003 je poraba Skupnosti narasla za 19,7 %, z 507705 ton na 607728 ton.
It should be noted that salmon has a relatively high level of price elasticity and the markedly higher increase in consumption in 2003 can therefore be at least partially explained by the fall in prices at wholesale level.
Treba je opozoriti, da je cena lososa relativno elastična, zato lahko povečanje porabe v letu 2003 tako vsaj delno razložimo s padcem cen v prodaji na veliko.
Production capacity and capacity utilisation

Capacity (t)
Količina (t)
Capacity utilisation
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti
Farmed salmon production in the European Community is effectively limited by government licences specifying the maximum amount of live fish which may be held in the water at any place at any point in time.
Proizvodnja gojenega lososa v Evropski skupnosti je omejena z državnimi licencami, ki določajo najvišjo količino živih rib, ki jih lahko zadržujejo v vodi, kjer koli in kadar koli.
Capacity figures given are based on the total quantity licensed rather than the physical fish-holding capacity of the cages operated by the Community producers.
Omenjene številke zmogljivosti temeljijo na skupni dovoljeni količini, ne pa na fizični zmogljivosti kletk, s katerimi upravljajo proizvajalci Skupnosti.
The cost of applying for and maintaining licences is relatively low and therefore the cost of maintaining excess capacity is also low.
Stroški prijave za licence in stroški podaljševanja licenc so relativno nizki zato je tudi strošek vzdrževanja presežnih zmogljivosti nizek.
Having remained stable between 2000 and 2002, the preliminary investigation showed that theoretical production capacity increased by 2,2 % between 2000 and 2003.
Zmogljivost med leti 2000 in 2002 je ostala nespremenjena, zato kaže predhodna raziskava, da se je zmogljivost proizvodnje med leti 2000 in 2003 teoretično povečala za 2,2 %.
Capacity utilisation (i.e. the quantity of fish in the water compared to the quantity licensed) increased from 43 % in 2000 to 48 % in 2001 and then increased steadily until 2003 when it reached 52 %.
Izkoriščenost zmogljivosti (t.j. količine rib v vodi v primerjavi z dovoljeno količino) se je z 43 % v letu 2000 povečala na 48 % 2001 in nato ostala stabilna do leta 2003, ko je dosegla 52 %.
This reflects the fact that production increased by 23 % between 2000 and 2003 whilst the licensed capacity increased by only 2,2 %.
To odraža dejstvo, da se je proizvodnja med leti 2000 in 2003 povečala za 23 %, medtem ko se je dovoljena zmogljivost povečala le za 2,2 %.
Production (t)
Proizvodnja (t)
Production (taken as fish harvested) grew by 23 % from 146664 tonnes in 2000 to 180593 tonnes in 2003, following a single year increase of 7 %.
Proizvodnja (ujete ribe) je narasla za 23 %, z 146664 ton v letu 2000 na 180593 v letu 2003, z letnim povečanjem za 7 %.
It should be noted that due to the long production cycle, production is planned at least two years in advance and that, once the production cycle is commenced, production levels cannot be adjusted except at the margins.
Treba je opozoriti, da je treba zaradi dolgega proizvodnega cikla proizvodnjo načrtovati dve leti vnaprej in da, je proizvedeno količino, ko se enkrat proizvodni cikel začne, mogoče prilagajati le na zgornji in spodnji meji.

Employment (end of period)
Zaposlitev (konec obdobja)
Employment in relation to the product concerned fell by 6 % from 1269 in 2000 to 1193 in 2003.
Zaposlitev je v povezavi z zadevno proizvodnjo padla za 6 %, z 1269 zaposlenih v letu 2000 na 1193 zaposlenih v letu 2003.
There was a reduction in employment in 2001, employment partially recovered in 2002 and remained stable in 2003.
Zmanjšanje zaposlitve je bilo moč opaziti v letu 2001, delno je narasla v letu 2002 in v letu 2003 pa je ostala stabilna.
Productivity (tonnes/employee)
Produktivnost (v tonah/zaposlenega)
Productivity has consistently increased throughout the period under consideration from 115 tonnes in 2000 to 151 tonnes in 2003.
Produktivnost je v tem obdobju dosledno rasla od 115 ton v letu 2000 do 151 ton v letu 2003.
This reflects the increasing use of automated feed systems and other labour saving devices, and the strong pressure to reduce costs in the face of mounting financial losses.
To odraža povečano uporabo samodejnih sistemov za krmljenje in drugih naprav, ki olajšajo delo, ter strog pritisk na zmanjševanje stroškov, v izogib izgubam.
Sales volume
Obseg prodaje
Sales in the Community (tonnes)
Prodaja v Skupnosti (t)
Between 2000 and 2002, the Community producers’ sales of the like product increased by 14,3 % from 134916 to 154171 tonnes.
Med leti 2000 in 2002 je prodaja podobnega izdelka proizvajalcev Skupnosti narasla za 14,3 %, z 134916 na 154171 ton.
This increase occurred against a background of an increase in consumption over the same period of 8,5 %.
To povečanje se je pojavilo kot ozadje povečanja porabe za 8,5 %, v istem obdobju.
Between 2002 and 2003, the Community producers’ sales decreased by 1,6 % from 154171 to 151780 tonnes, notwithstanding an increase in consumption between 2002 and 2003 of 10,3 %.
Med leti 2002 in 2003 je prodaja proizvajalcev Skupnosti padla za 1,6 %, z 154171 na 151750 ton, ne glede na povečanje porabe za 10,3 % med leti 2002 in 2003.
Market share
Tržni delež
The Community producers’ market share increased from 26,5 % in 2000 to 28,1 % in 2001 and remained at about this level in 2002, but then fell by 3,0 percentage points to 25,0 % in 2003, its lowest level in the period considered.
Tržni delež proizvajalcev Skupnosti se je povečal z 26,5 % v letu 2000 na 28,1 % v letu 2001 in ostal stabilen v letu 2002, vendar je nato padel za 3,0 odstotne točke na 25,0 % v letu 2003, kar je bilo najnižje v omenjenem obdobju.
This reflects the fact that imports increased not only in absolute terms, but also relative to consumption, in 2003.
To odraža dejstvo, da se je uvoz povečal tako absolutno kot relativno s porabo v letu 2003.
Cash flow
Denarni tok
Cash flow (index)
Denarni tok (indeks)
Cash flow could only be examined at the level of the cooperating companies which produced the product concerned rather than in relation to only the product concerned itself.
Denarni tok je mogoče raziskati le na ravni sodelovanja podjetij, ki proizvajajo zadevni izdelek, ne pa glede na količino izdelka samega.
This indicator was therefore seen as less meaningful than the other indicators shown.
Ta indikator je bil takrat manj pomemben kot drugi prikazani indikatorji.
Nevertheless, it can be seen that there was strongly negative cash flow in 2001, 2002 and 2003.
Vseeno je mogoče opaziti zelo negativen denarni tok v letih 2001, 2002 in 2003.
Return on capital employed (ROCE)
Donos naložbenega kapitala (ROCE)
ROCE could also only be examined on the level of the cooperating companies which produced the product concerned rather than in relation to only the product concerned itself.
Donos naložbenega kapitala je mogoče raziskati le na ravni sodelovanja podjetij, ki proizvajajo zadevni izdelek, ne pa glede na količino izdelka samega.
This indicator was therefore also seen as less meaningful than the other indicators.
Ta indikator je bil takrat manj pomemben kot drugi prikazani indikatorji.
Nevertheless, it can be seen that ROCE fell from 34 % in 2000 to close to zero in 2001 and 2002 before falling to –20 % in 2003.
Vseeno le mogoče opaziti, da je donos naložbenega kapitala padel s 34 % v letu 2000 na skoraj nič v letu 2001 in 2002, pred padcem za – 20 % v letu 2003.
Price of the like product
Cena zadevnega izdelka
Unit prices of Community sales (EUR 1000/tonne) [6]
cene enot prodaje Skupnosti (v 1000 EUR/tono) [6]
The average price of the like product fell by 20,3 % between 2000 and 2003, with a steady decline in prices over that period.
Povprečna cena podobnega proizvoda je med 2000 in 2003 padla za 20,3 % z rahlim padanjem cen v tem obdobju.
Prices reached their lowest point (EUR 2,79/kg) in 2003.
Cene so dosegle najnižjo raven (2,79 EUR/kg) v letu 2003.
In Q1 2004, the information available indicates that the average unit price of the Community producers’ sales increased slightly, in line with the slight increase in average import prices.
V prvem četrtletju leta 2004 so informacije, ki so na voljo pokazale, da je povprečna cena enote proizvajalcev Skupnosti rahlo narasla, skupaj s povprečnimi uvoznimi cenami.
However, the latest information indicates that prices are again following a downward trend.
Vendar zadnje informacije kažejo, da cene ponovno padajo.
One party argued that (by reference to average annual exchange rates) price falls were less significant in pounds sterling.
Ena stran je ugovarjala (s sklicevanjem na letne menjalne tečaje), da je padec cen v britanskih funtih manj občuten.
Nevertheless, it is considered that the Commission should not diverge from its consistent practice in trade defence cases in using the euro as the unit of currency.
Vendar je Komisija odločila, da kot denarno enoto v primerih trgovinske zaščite uporablja evro.
Average cost of production per tonne (EUR/kilo)
Povprečen strošek proizvodnje na tono (EUR/kg)
In addition to price development, the development of costs has also been considered.
Poleg razvoja cen je bil upoštevan tudi razvoj stroškov.
Costs have fluctuated between EUR 3,0 and EUR 3,2/kg over the period 2000 to 2003.
Stroški so se v obdobju med leti 2000 in 2003 gibali med 3,0 in 3,2 EUR/kg.
Profitability
17,1 %– Donosnost
Net profit/loss on Community sales
Neto donos/izguba prodaje Skupnosti
The profitability of the Community producers’ sales in the Community fell from 7,3 % in 2000 to –3,3 % in 2001.
Donosnost prodaje proizvajalcev Skupnosti je padla s 7,3 % v letu 2000 na – 3,3 % v letu 2001.
Losses became less pronounced in 2002 (–2,5 %) but then increased to –17,1 % in 2003.
Izgube so bile v letu 2002 manjše (– 2,5 %), a so v letu 2003 narasle na – 17,1 %.
In 2003, as imports increased to their highest level and the average price of imports fell to its lowest level (EUR 2,54/kg), the average price of the Community product also fell to its lowest level (EUR 2,79/kg).
V letu 2003 je uvoz narasel na najvišjo raven zato je povprečna cena uvoženega izdelka padla na najnižjo raven (2,54 EUR/kg), povprečna cena izdelka Skupnosti pa je prav tako padla na najnižjo raven (2,79 EUR/kg).
The Community producers’ fall in profitability between 2000 and 2003 occurred at the same time as the price per kilo of the Community producers’ product fell from EUR 3,50 to EUR 2,79.
Padec donosa proizvajalcev Skupnosti v letih 2000 in 2003 se je pojavil istočasno s padcem cene na kg izdelka proizvajalcev Skupnosti padla s 3,50 na 2,79 EUR.
Stocks
Zaloge
Closing stock (t)
Zadnja zaloga (t)
Stocks in this context refer to live fish in the water.
Zaloga se v tem kontekstu nanaša na žive ribe v vodi.
The Community producers, as all others, have negligible stocks of harvested fish as they have to be sold immediately.
Proizvajalci Skupnosti, tako kot vsi ostali, imajo zanemarljive zaloge ulovljenih rib, ker jih je treba prodati takoj.
Therefore, a fall in closing stock levels indicates a decrease in the quantity of live fish being on-grown for harvesting in the following two years.
Tako kaže padec zadnje zaloge na zmanjšanje količine živih rib, ki čakajo na ulov v naslednjih letih.
Therefore, in this case, falling stock levels are an indicator of growing injury.
Tako je v tem primeru padec zaloge indikator povečanja škode.
Stock levels increased from 36332 tonnes in 2000 up to 53178 tonnes in 2002 and then declined to 43024 tonnes in 2003.
Zaloge so se povečale s 36332 ton v letu 2000 na 53178 v letu 2002 in nato v letu 2003 padle na 43024 tone.
This represents a fall in stocks between 2002 and 2003 of 19,1 %.
To predstavlja padec zalog med leti 2000 in 2003 za 19,1 %.
It is recalled that the investigation has shown that between 2000 and 2003, and in particular as between 2002 and 2003, imports of the product concerned have taken place in increased quantities and high volumes onto the Community market.
Preiskava je pokazala, da se je med leti 2000 in 2003, zlasti med leti 2002 in 2003, uvoz zadevnega izdelka na trg Skupnosti močno povečal.
As to the situation of the Community producers, between 2000 and 2002, theoretical production capacity remained more or less stable, whilst production increased by 14,8 %.
Zmogljivost proizvajalcev Skupnosti je ostala med leti 2000 in 2002 bolj ali manj stabilna, medtem ko se je proizvodnja povečala na 14,8 %.
In consequence, capacity utilisation increased from 43 % to 50 % in this period.
Posledično se je izkoriščenost zmogljivosti v tem obdobju povečala s 43 % na 50 %.
Stocks of live fish in the water also increased.
Prav tako so se povečale zaloge živih rib v vodi.
There was some loss of employment, whereas productivity increased mostly due to greater use of automation.
Prišlo je tudi do izgube nekaj delovnih mest, in sicer v podjetjih, v katerih je produktivnost narasla na račun povečane avtomatizacije.
Sales volumes increased by 14,3 % between 2000 and 2002 (compared to 8,5 % growth in consumption), and the Community producers’ market share increased from 26,5 % to 28,0 %.
Obseg prodaje se je med leti 2000 in 2002 povečal za 14,3 % (v primerjavi z 8,5-odstotno rastjo porabe) tržni delež proizvajalcev Skupnosti pa se je s 26,5 % povečal na 28,0 %.
However, even in this period prices fell by 13,7 % between 2000 and 2002, and despite a small decrease in costs in 2002 (partly due to higher capacity utilisation and better productivity), this appears to have led to a fall in profitability from 7,3 % in 2000 to losses of – 3,3 % and – 2,5 % in 2001 and 2002.
Vendar so v tem obdobju med leti 2000 in 2002 cene padle za 13,7 % in kljub manjšemu padcu stroškov v letu 2002 (zaradi visoke izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti in boljše produktivnosti) je to vodilo k padcu donosnosti s 7,3 % v letu 2000 na – 3,3 % in – 2,5 % v letih 2001 in 2002.
ROCE and cash flow also developed negatively in this period.
ROCE in denarni tokovi so se razvijali v tem obdobju prav tako razvijali.
Between 2002 and 2003, the position of the Community producers worsened considerably.
Med leti 2002 in 2003 se je položaj proizvajalcev Skupnosti opazno poslabšal.
Although production capacity and production increased (by 7,3 %) in line with previously developed production plans and this led to higher capacity utilisation and improved productivity, all other indicators developed negatively.
Čeprav sta se proizvodna zmogljivost in proizvodnja povečali (za 7,3 %) skladno z določenim planom proizvodnje, ter je to vodilo k večji proizvodnji zmogljivosti in izboljšani produktivnosti, pa so se vsi ostali indikatorji razvijali negativno.
Stocks of fish in the water fell by 19,1 %.
Zaloge živih rib v vodi so padle za 19,1 %.
In the face of 10,3 % growth in consumption, the Community producers’ sales fell by 1,6 % and they lost market share.
Zaradi 10,3 % rasti porabe je prodaja proizvajalcev Skupnosti padla za 1,6 %, zato so izgubili so tržni delež.
In addition, prices fell by a further 7,6 %, whilst costs increased to their average level for the four-year period.
Poleg tega so cene padle za nadaljnjih 7,6 %, medtem ko so se stroški glede na povprečno raven zadnjih štirih let povečali.
This led to a sharp drop in profitability and the Community producers incurred losses of 17,1 %.
Zaradi tega je prišlo do nenadnega padca donosnosti, in pridelovalci Skupnosti pa so utrpeli izgube v višini 17,1 %.
These losses were reflected in an overall ROCE of – 20 %.
Te izgube se v skupnem ROCE-ju odražajo za – 20 %.
Whilst cash flow appeared to improve, this actually reflected reduction in stocks of fish in the water and an inability to reinvest.
Medtem ko so se denarni tokovi izboljševali, se je to dejansko poznalo pri zmanjševanju zalog rib v vodi in nezmožnosti ponovnega vlaganja.
Taking account of all of these factors the preliminary conclusion reached is that the Community producers have suffered serious injury in terms of a significant overall impairment of the situation in the position of the Community producers.
Ob upoštevanju vseh teh dejavnikov je bil sprejet predhodni zaključek, in sicer ta, da so proizvajalci Skupnosti utrpeli resno škodo.
CAUSATION
VZROKI
In order to examine the existence of a causal link between the increased imports and the serious injury, and ensure that injury caused by other factors is not attributed to increased imports, the injurious effects of factors considered to be causing injury have been distinguished from each other, the injurious effects have been attributed to the factors which are causing them, and, after having attributed injury to all causal factors present, it has been determined whether increased imports are a ‘genuine and substantial’ cause of serious injury.
Da bi pregledali obstoj vzročne povezave med povečanim izvozom in resno škodo ter zagotovili, da škoda, ki bi jo povzročili drugi dejavniki, ne bi bila pripisana povečanemu uvozu, so bili škodni dejavniki ločeni med seboj, tako da so lahko škodni učinki pripisani različnim faktorjem. Nato pa je bilo ugotovljeno, da je povečanje uvoza res „pristni in bistveni“ vzrok za škodo.

Analiza vzročnih dejavnikov
Effect of increased imports
Učinek povečanega uvoza
As shown above, between 2000 and 2003, and in particular as between 2002 and 2003, imports of the product concerned have taken place in increased quantities and high volumes onto the Community market.
Kot je prikazano zgoraj, se je med leti 2000 in 2003, zlasti med leti 2002 in 2003, uvoz zadevnega izdelka na trg Skupnosti zelo povečal.
Farmed salmon is essentially a commodity product, and the product concerned and the like product compete mainly on price.
Gojeni losos je blagovni izdelek, zato sta zadevni izdelek in podobni izdelek pri ceni konkurenčna.
It is generally accepted that imports, particularly from Norway, are the market leader and price-setter.
Splošno sprejeto je, da uvoz, zlasti z Norveške, določa cene na trgu.
In consequence, even low levels of undercutting result in price depression for the Community producers.
Posledično se nizek nivo nižanja cen kaže v padanju cen za proizvajalce Skupnosti.
In the current case, the most important injurious effect of increased imports was the large financial losses to the Community producers.
V tem primeru je najpomembnejši škodni učinek na povečan uvoz velika finančna izguba proizvajalcev Skupnosti.
Due to the market and price leadership of imports, increased imports drove down prices throughout the Community.
Zaradi povečanja uvoza so cene po vsej Skupnosti padle.
Had imports increased to a lesser degree, this price pressure would also have been lower.
Če bi se uvoz povečal za manjšo stopnjo, bi bil pritisk na cene prav tako manjši.
Had demand in the Community market been such as to sustain such an increase in imports at substantially higher prices, albeit such an increase would have resulted in lower sales and market share for the Community producers, it is possible that the Community producers would not have suffered serious injury.
Če bi bilo povpraševanje v Skupnosti tako, da bi preneslo povečanje uvoza in občutno višjo ceno, čeprav bi tako povečanje povzročilo nižje cene in manjši tržni delež za proizvajalce Skupnosti, bi bilo mogoče, da proizvajalci Skupnosti ne bi utrpeli resne škode.
Between 2000 and 2002, the price of imports fell by 19 % and was closely followed by the Community producers’ prices.
Med leti 2000 in 2002 so cene uvoza padle za 19 %, temu padcu pa so sledile cene proizvajalcev Skupnosti.
Whilst the market share of the Community producers’ sales in the Community increased in this period, this reflected production decisions taken in earlier years and in both 2001 and 2002 the Community producers’ sales were made at a loss.
Ko se je tržni delež prodaje proizvajalcev Skupnosti v tem obdobju povečeval, je to odražalo proizvodni načrt prejšnjih let, in je v obeh letih, 2001 in 2002, prodaja proizvajalcev Skupnosti prinesla izgubo.
Between 2002 and 2003, imports grew by 15 %.
V letih 2002 in 2003 je uvoz narasel za 15 %.
The market share of imports grew from 72 % to 75 %, whilst the market share of the Community producers fell from 28 % to 25 %.
Tržni delež uvoza je narasel z 72 % na 75 %, tržni delež proizvajalcev Skupnosti pa je padel z 28 % na 25 %.
Over the same period imports grew from 236 % to 252 % of Community production.
V istem obdobju je uvoz narasel z 235 % na 252 % proizvodnje Skupnosti.
Thus, imports appear to have increased relative to both Community production and consumption at the expense of the Community producers.
Tako se je uvoz relativno povečal s proizvodnjo in porabo Skupnosti, na račun proizvajalcev Skupnosti.
However, the most important aspect of the increase in imports was its effect on the prices and profitability of the Community producers.
Vendar je najpomembnejši vidik povečanja uvoza učinek na cene in donosnost proizvajalcev Skupnosti.
As noted above, it is generally accepted that imports (particularly from Norway) are the price leader in the Community market for farmed salmon.
Kot je omenjeno zgoraj, je splošno sprejeto, da uvoz (zlasti z Norveške) določa cene gojenega lososa na trgu Skupnosti.
The existence of undercutting has therefore been examined to establish whether indeed the low priced imports have tended to depress the prices practised by the Community producers.
Zaradi nižanja cen je bilo treba ugotoviti, ali zaradi nizkih cen uvoženega blaga padajo tudi cene blaga proizvajalcev Skupnosti.
In order to reach a preliminary determination as to the level of undercutting, price information was examined for comparable time periods, at the same level of trade and for sales to similar customers.
Da bi dosegli predhodno odločitev o nivoju nižanja cen, so bile informacije o ceni pregledane za primerljivo obdobje, na isti ravni poslovanja in za prodajo podobnim kupcem.
