Article 6Financial assistance for withdrawals to producers not being members of producer organisations

1.The maximum amounts of the financial assistance granted to producers who are not members of a recognised producer organisation for market withdrawals for free distribution shall be those set out in Annex II.

The maximum amounts of the financial assistance granted to producers who are not members of a recognised producer organisation for market withdrawals for destinations other than free distribution shall be 50 % of the amounts set out in Annex II.

2.Producers who are not members of a recognised producer organisation shall conclude a contract with such an organisation for the entire quantity of products to be delivered. Producer organisations shall accept all reasonable requests from producers who are not members of a recognised producer organisation. The quantities delivered by producers not being members shall be consistent with the regional yields and surface concerned.

The financial assistance shall be paid to producers not being members of a recognised producer organisation by the producer organisation with which they signed such a contract.

The amounts that correspond to the real costs incurred by the producer organisation for withdrawing the respective products shall be retained by that organisation. Evidence of those costs shall be proved by means of invoices.

3.For duly justified reasons, such as the limited degree of organisation of the producers in the Member State concerned, and in a non-discriminatory way, Member States may authorise that a producer who is not a member of a recognised producer organisation may, instead of signing the contract referred to in paragraph 2, make a notification to the competent authority of the Member State about the quantity to be delivered. For such notification, Article 78 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011 shall apply mutatis mutandis. The quantities delivered by producers not being members shall be consistent with the regional yields and surface concerned.

In such cases, the competent authority of the Member State shall pay the financial assistance directly to the producer. Member States shall adopt new or apply existing national rules or procedures for this purpose.

4.Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 and Implementing Regulation (EU) No 543/2011, as well as Article 4 of this Regulation shall apply mutatis mutandis in respect of this Article.
