Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1077

of 30 July 2018

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014 laying down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 December 2013 on support for rural development by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005(1), and in particular Article 8(3) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014(2) has laid down rules for the application of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013. Regulation (EU) 2017/2393 of the European Parliament and of the Council(3) has amended Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 by simplifying the general rules governing the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD). Therefore, the rules for the implementation of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 should be amended accordingly.

(2) The obligation to select bodies to provide advice through a specific call for tenders procedure was abolished. Therefore, implementing rules referring to the calls for tenders should be deleted.

(3) Rules for joint setting up of young farmers have been introduced in Article 2(1)(n) of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 and a definition of the ‘date of setting up’ has been added in Article 2(1)(s) of that Regulation. Therefore, provisions referring to the young farmer set out in paragraph 8 of Part 1 of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014 should be aligned. Moreover, following the deletion of Article 57 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 809/2014(4) containing rules on Farm and business development, the rules for business plan laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014 should also be simplified.

(4) The rules on financial instruments have been simplified. Notably, a derogation from the applicability of selection criteria for operations supported through financial instruments has been introduced in Article 49(4) of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013. Paragraph 8 of Part 1 of Annex I to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014 should be aligned with this derogation.

(5) In order to avoid unnecessary administrative burden and in particular frequent modifications of the financing plans, it is necessary to clarify that the capping related to the overrun of the planned EAFRD contributions as presented in the financial plan of each programme is calculated at the level of the total amount of each measure.

(6) Article 39a of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 provides for support to farmers through a sector specific income stabilisation tool and Article 37 of that Regulation allows for support to agricultural insurance schemes covering production losses exceeding 20 % of an annual average caused by adverse climatic events, animal or plant diseases, pest infestation, or an environmental incident. In accordance with Article 8(1)(h) of Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013, the financing plan should indicate the planned EAFRD support and the contribution rate.

(7) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 808/2014 should therefore be amended accordingly.

(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Rural Development Committee,
