NOTES TO THE SCHEDULE
Note to column 1
(1)This refers to land which is set-aside under Article 2(5) of Council Regulation 1765/92, except where such land is used (in accordance with Article 7(4) of Council Regulation 1765/92) for the provision of materials for the manufacture within the Community of products not primarily intended for human or animal consumption.
Notes to column 3
(1)Deduct £147 from this figure in the case of animals for which the net annual income does not include:
(i) a sum in respect of the premium for maintaining suckler cows (suckler cow premium) provided for in Article 4d of Council Regulation 805/68, and
(ii) a sum provided for by Council Regulation 1357/96.
Add £31 to the figure in column 3 in the case of animals for which the net annual income is to include a sum in respect of the additional amount (extensification premium) provided for in Article 4h of Council Regulation 805/68.
(2)This is the figure for animals which are kept for 12 months.
Deduct £113 in the case of animals which are kept for 12 months and for which the net annual income does not include:
(i) a sum in respect of the special premium for holding male bovine animals (beef special premium) provided for in Article 4b of Council Regulation 805/68, and
(ii) a sum provided for by Council Regulation 1357/96.
Add £31 to the figure in column 3 in the case of animals which are kept for 12 months and for which the net annual income is to include a sum in respect of extensification premium.
In the case of animals which are kept for less than 12 months and for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of beef special premium, the net annual income is to be calculated by deducting £113 from the figure in column 3 and then making a pro rata adjustment of the resulting figure.
In the case of animals which are kept for less than 12 months and for which the net annual income includes a sum in respect of beef special premium, the net annual income is to be calculated by first deducting £113 from the figure in column 3, then making a pro rata adjustment of the resulting figure, then adding to that figure the sum of £113 and (where the net annual income includes a sum in respect of extensification premium) the sum of £31.
(3)This indicates the figure for animals (irrespective of age) which are kept for 12 months. In the case of animals which are kept for less than 12 months a pro rata adjustment of this figure is to be made.
(4)Deduct £24 from this figure in the case of animals for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of the premium for offsetting income loss sustained by sheep meat producers (sheep annual premium) provided for in Article 5 of Council Regulation 3013/89.
(5)Deduct £18 from this figure in the case of animals for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of sheep annual premium.
(6) Deduct £266 from this figure in the case of land for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of the compensatory payment for which producers of arable crops may apply (area payment) provided for in Article 2 of Council Regulation 1765/92.
(7)Deduct £385 from this figure in the case of land for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of area payment.
(8)Deduct £515 from this figure in the case of land for which the net annual income does not include a sum in respect of area payment.
