Whereas Article 16 (a) of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 defines the criteria for fixing the intervention threshold for nectarines; whereas it is for the Commission to fix this intervention threshold by applying the percentage defined in paragraph 2 of the  said Article to the average production intended for fresh consumption over the last five marketing years for which data are available;
