Protein crops shall include:
peas falling within CN code 0713 10;

The protein crop premium shall be EUR 55,57 per hectare of protein crops harvested after the stage of lactic ripeness.
However, crops grown on areas which are fully sown and which are cultivated in accordance with local standards, but which do not attain the stage of lactic ripeness as a result of exceptional weather conditions recognised by the Member State concerned, shall remain eligible for the protein crop premium provided that the areas in question are not used for any other purpose up to this growing stage.
1.A maximum guaranteed area of 1 648 000 ha for which the protein crop premium may be granted is hereby established.
2.Where the area for which the protein crop premium is claimed exceeds the maximum guaranteed area, the area per farmer for which the protein crop premium is claimed shall be reduced proportionately in that year in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 141(2).
3.Where, in accordance with Article 67, a Member State decides to integrate the protein crop premium provided for in this Section into the single payment scheme, the Commission, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 141(2), shall reduce the maximum guaranteed area referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article in proportion to the protein crops amount corresponding to that Member State in Annex XII.
