crop yield

Sustainable agriculture is the manner of foodstuff/food production which ensures good quality crops and preserves or improves their quality, prevents soil erosion and does not exert any harmful pesticide effect on the environment, preserves biological diversity of the ecosystems, creates desired yields on agricultural surface areas, preserves the energy balance, does not pollute soil water, preserves and increases social and human capital in rural areas, and enhances the development of local economies.

Crops not grown in rotation, other than permanent grassland, which occupy the soil for a long period and yield crops over several years.

«permanent crops» shall mean non-rotational crops other than permanent pasture that occupy the land for five years or longer and yield repeated harvests including nurseries as defined in Annex I point (G/05) of Commission Decision 2000/115/EC(3), with the exception of multiannual crops and the nurseries of such multiannual crops;

With a view to preventing surpluses of table wine and wines suitable for yielding table wine, the Member States may set a limit for crop yields expressed as an amount of hectolitres per hectare, the overshoot of which shall result in the producers' ineligibility for benefits under this Regulation.

The evaluation of crop output can normally be based on resources, i.e. the estimate of quantities produced (harvested) based on estimates of areas under crops and yields, or on uses, i.e. on estimates of purchases by the user branches of agricultural products, exports net of imports, to which should be added certain quantities used for intermediate consumption by the agricultural industry, changes in producer stocks and use for own account (much of which is own final consumption).

"(i) such amendments to Annexes II, VI, VII, IX, X and XI as may become necessary, taking into account in particular new Community legislation and, as far as it concerns Annexes VIII and VIIIa, in case of application of Articles 62 and 71i respectively and, as the case may be, in function of the information communicated by the Member States in relation to the part of the reference amounts corresponding to the payments for arable crops, as well as the amounts of the ceilings themselves, to be increased in function of the difference between the area actually determined and the area for which premiums were paid for arable crops in 2000 and 2001, in application of Article 9(2) and (3) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3887/92(9), within the limit of the base areas (or maximum guaranteed area for durum wheat) and taking into account the average national yield used for the calculation of Annex VIII."

For each production region, the Member State shall give details of the areas and yields of arable crops produced in that region during the five-year period 1986/1987 to 1990/1991. Average cereals yields shall be separately calculated for each region by excluding the year with the highest and the year with the lowest yield during that period.

The Commission wishes to encourage projects permitting the improvement of the existing indicators such as, in particular, regional-level information on yields of certain crops, data on the sale or consumption of mineral fertilisers etc. It also supports the establishment of landscape indicators such as the lengths of hedges or walls or the areas used at regional level outside the utilised agricultural area (pasture, alpine meadow etc.);

The evaluation of crop output can normally be based on resources, i.e. the estimate of quantities produced (harvested) based on estimates of areas under crops and yields, or on uses, i.e. on estimates of purchases by the user branches of agricultural products, exports net of imports, to which should be added certain quantities used for intermediate consumption by the agricultural industry, changes in producer stocks and use for own account (much of which is own final consumption).

The yield shall be calculated in accordance with the provisions of Article 1 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 431/68 of 9 April 1968 determining the standard quality for raw sugar and fixing the Community frontier crossing point for calculating c.i.f. prices for sugar.

In cases where the necessary data does not exist or is not available or the olive grower has amended the crop declaration involving a change in the production potential, entitlement shall be determined by multiplying the number of olive trees in production by the average of the olive yield and the oil yields fixed, pursuant to Article 18, for the two previous marketing years.'

Whereas it is necessary, where there is a difference between the yield of the raw sugar concerned and that of raw sugar of the standard quality, to apply the same corrective factor as is applied, pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 431/68 (5) of 9 April 1968 determining the standard quality for raw sugar and fixing the Community frontier crossing point for calculating cif prices for sugar, in the case of imports;
