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:

  1. 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

  2. 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:

  1. 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

  2. ii

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.
