Article 3

Where a crop declaration has already been lodged with the competent body, the crop declaration for the current crop year shall simply indicate the references to the previous declaration and any changes which have occurred since then. For the 1998/99 and 1999/2000 marketing years, any changes shall be taken into account having regard to the definitions in force and the information required for crop declarations under Regulation (EEC) No 3061/84 for 1997/98.

If there is no change in the information in question, the crop declarations shall be lodged at the same time as the aid applications and shall simply state that there is no change as compared with the previous declaration.

Declarations made under Regulation (EEC) No 3061/84 shall be replaced by a full crop declaration in accordance with Articles 1 and 2 F1not later than in the course of the 1999/2000 and 2000/01 marketing years.
