Whereas the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany forwarded on 11 September 1987 a programme to improve processing and marketing facilities for cereals in Lower Saxony and supplied additional information on 7 July and 1 September 1988;
Whereas the aim of the said programme is the rationalization and modernization of storage and other facilities operated by first purchasers in the cereals sector, with a view to maintaining the competitiveness of the sector and enhancing the value of the products concerned; whereas it therefore constitutes a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

That historical relationship has been established in Article 2(2) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001 of 2 August 2001 laying down detailed rules for applying the cotton aid scheme (3). Where the world market price cannot be determined in this way, it is to be based on the most recent price determined.
(2) In accordance with Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001, the world market price for unginned cotton is to be determined in respect of a product of specific characteristics and by reference to the most favourable offers and quotations on the world market among those considered representative of the real market trend. To that end, an average is to be calculated of offers and quotations recorded on one or more European exchanges for a product delivered cif to a port in the Community and coming from the various supplier countries considered the most representative in terms of international trade. However, there is provision for adjusting the criteria for determining the world market price for ginned cotton to reflect differences justified by the quality of the product delivered and the offers and quotations concerned. Those adjustments are specified in Article 3(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1591/2001.
(3) The application of the above criteria gives the world market price for unginned cotton determined hereinafter,
The world price for unginned cotton as referred to in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1051/2001 is hereby determined as equalling 22,523 EUR/100 kg.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 9 July 2005.
