1. By way of derogation from Article 19(2) and (3) of Regulation (EC) No 2316/1999, the Swedish regions listed in the Annex to this Regulation may allow land declared as set-aside to be used for animal feed purposes in the 2003/04 marketing year.
2. Sweden shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the set-aside land indicated in paragraph 1 is not used for lucrative purposes, and in particular that no dried fodder production aid under Council Regulation (EC) No 603/95(5) is granted on crops from it.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
It shall apply with effect from 1 August 2003.
