  "title": "The Set-Aside (Amendment) Regulations 1990",
  "long_title": "These Regulations further amend the Set-Aside Regulations 1988 consistently with the provisions in article 1a of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 797/85, (OJ No. L93, 30.3.85, p. 1) as amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1760/87 (OJ No. L167, 26.6.87, p. 1) and Council Regulation (EEC) No. 1094/88 (OJ L106, 27.4.88, p. 28) and the detailed rules in Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 1272/88 OJ No. L121, 11.5.88, p. 36. They enable farmers who had livestock in the reference period (1st July 1987–30th June 1988) to graze on their holdings no more than the equivalent of that number of livestock units, and farmers who did not have livestock in the reference period to graze deer or goats up to one livestock unit per forage hectare (regulations 5 and 9 and Schedule 3). Farmers who make use of this optional use of fallow land are required to comply with certain conditions, including conditions as to the application of fertilisers (other than manure produced by the livestock), pesticides and herbicides, and as to maintenance of environmental features. Grass must be sown and may not be cut more than once in every year (regulation 8 and Schedule 2).",
