COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2022/126

of 7 December 2021

supplementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 of the European Parliament and of the Council with additional requirements for certain types of intervention specified by Member States in their CAP Strategic Plans for the period 2023 to 2027 under that Regulation as well as rules on the ratio for the good agricultural and environmental condition (GAEC) standard 1

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 2 December 2021 establishing rules on support for strategic plans to be drawn up by Member States under the common agricultural policy (CAP Strategic Plans) and financed by the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) and by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and repealing Regulation (EU) No 1305/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Regulation (EU) No 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Articles 4(8), 13(3), 37(5), 38(5) and 39(3) and Articles 45, points (a) to (i), 56, points (a), (b) and (c), and 84, points (a) and (b), thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 lays down a new legal framework for the common agricultural policy (CAP) to improve its delivery on the Union’s objectives set out in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. That Regulation further specifies these Union objectives to be achieved by the CAP and defines the types of intervention as well as the common Union requirements applicable to Member States, while leaving flexibility for Member States in the design of the interventions to be provided in their CAP Strategic Plans.
(2) In order to ensure the common nature of the CAP and the internal market, Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 empowers the Commission to adopt additional requirements for the design of the interventions to be specified in the CAP Strategic Plans, in the area of direct payments, of certain agricultural sectors referred to in Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) and in the area of rural development as well as common rules for these areas as regards the ratio for the good agricultural and environmental condition (GAEC) standard 1. All those additional requirements have to be considered by Member States when designing their CAP Strategic Plans which cover all areas concerned and should therefore be all laid down in this Regulation.
(3) As regards the interventions to be specified by Member States in their CAP Strategic Plans, in the area of direct payments, additional requirements for the interventions on hemp and cotton should be laid down. The granting of payments should be made conditional upon the use of certified seeds of certain hemp varieties.
(4) In addition, the procedure for the determination of hemp varieties and the verification of their tetrahydrocannabinol content (THC content) referred to in Article 4(4) second subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 should be laid down. The verification of the THC content is necessary to protect the financial interests of the Union, but is also strategic to preserve public health, and to ensure coherence with other legislative frameworks, namely criminal law in the field of illicit drug trafficking and the commitments under international obligations such as the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs (3). It is therefore appropriate to lay down rules harmonising the methods and the procedures used by the Member States for the verification of hemp varieties and for the quantitative determination of the THC content in hemp, in order to ensure comparable results.
(5) It is necessary to provide for a time period during which hemp grown for fibre may not be harvested after flowering, in order to enable the effective and reliable determination of the THC content in hemp.
(6) In the interest of clarity and legal certainty, when a variety exceeds the THC content referred to in Article 4(4), second subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 for 2 consecutive years, the Member States should take the necessary measures to inform timely the operators that the cultivation of that variety would not give the right to direct payments.
(7) The rules for the verification of hemp varieties and the quantitative determination of the THC content should take into account that hemp may be cultivated either as main crop or as catch crop. In that context, it is appropriate to provide a definition of hemp cultivated as catch crop.
(8) Title III, Chapter II, Section 3, Subsection 2, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 provides for a crop-specific payment for cotton. It is appropriate to lay down the rules and conditions for the authorisation of agricultural land and varieties for the purposes of that payment. Furthermore, additional conditions should be laid down to ensure a minimum activity in line with the support’s objective.
(9) The Member States referred to in Article 36 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 should approve interbranch cotton producing organisations on the basis of objective criteria relating to their scale and internal organisation. The scale of an interbranch organisation should be fixed, taking into account the requirement for the ginner belonging to the organisation to be able to take delivery of sufficient quantities of unginned cotton.
(10) Specific obligations with regard to the farmers, as members of interbranch organisations, should be laid down. These aim at facilitating the administration and control of farmers’ membership, as well as enhancing the organisations’ potential efficiency gain arising from the number and dedication of their members.
(11) Additional requirements as regards investments, agri-environment-climate interventions, coaching, promotion, communication and marketing, mutual funds, replanting of orchards, olive groves or vineyards following mandatory grubbing-up, green harvesting and non-harvesting, harvest and production insurance, market withdrawals for destinations other than free distribution and collective storage should be set out for the interventions to be specified by Member States, in their CAP Strategic Plans, in the fruit and vegetables sector, in the apiculture sector, in the wine sector, in the hops sector, in the olive oil and table olives sectors as well as other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115. In addition, provisions regarding forms of support and types of expenditure, including the use of flat-rates and scales of unit costs or lump sums, as well as administrative and personnel costs should be laid down. For reasons of sound financial management and legal certainty, a list of expenditure that may not be covered by the CAP Strategic Plans and a non-exhaustive list of expenditure that may be covered in the fruit and vegetables, the apiculture, the wine, the hops, the olive oil and table olives sectors as well as other sectors should be drawn up.
(12) Furthermore, specific rules regarding certain sectoral types of intervention, namely, in the fruit and vegetables, the apiculture, the wine, the hops and the livestock sectors should be laid down in order to take into account certain specificities of those sectors.
(13) Regarding sectoral types of intervention managed by producer organisations, associations of producer organisations, transnational producer organisations, transnational associations of producer organisations, or producer groups through operational programmes, in the fruit and vegetables, olive oil and table olives and other sectors, specific rules should be laid down as regards products coverage and market withdrawals for free distribution, namely transport and conditioning costs, taking into account the potential importance of that intervention. In particular, maximum levels of support for market withdrawals should be fixed in order to ensure that withdrawals do not become a permanent alternative outlet for products compared to placing them on the market. In all cases, for similar reasons, it is appropriate to set a quantitative limit of withdrawals per product per producer organisation. In addition, specific rules should be laid down regarding the destinations for withdrawn products, the conditions for the recipients of withdrawn products and relevant standards to be complied with by withdrawn products.
(14) To facilitate the use of sectoral interventions through operational programmes, the method of calculation of the value of marketed production of producer organisations should be established, including the use of a flat rate for the purpose of calculating the value of fruit and vegetables intended for processing. The method of calculation of the value of marketed production should attenuate yearly fluctuations or insufficient data for newly recognised organisations or groups. To prevent misuse of the scheme, producer organisations should not be permitted in general to change the methodology for fixing the reference period within the duration of a programme.
(15) To ensure a good functioning of the types of intervention in the fruit and vegetables sector, it would be appropriate to lay down specific objectives regarding agri-environment-climate interventions.
(16) Rules should be laid down concerning the national financial assistance that Member States may grant in regions where the degree of organisation of producers of fruit and vegetables is particularly low, including rules on how the degree of organisation is calculated and a low degree of organisation is confirmed.
(17) To ensure a good functioning of the types of intervention in apiculture sector, rules regarding beehives should be laid down.
(18) To ensure a good functioning of the types of intervention in the wine sector, it is appropriate to draw up a non-exhaustive list of operators which may be the beneficiaries of the support for the different types of intervention. It is also necessary to provide for some specific eligibility requirements as regards beneficiaries of the types of intervention ‘restructuring and conversion of vineyards’, ‘green harvesting’ and ‘harvest insurance’, bodies governed by public law and private companies. It is further appropriate to exclude from Union support producers farming unlawful plantings or unauthorised planted areas.
(19) To ensure that Union funds are spent properly, it is necessary to lay down rules on expenditure for the ‘replanting of vineyards for health or phytosanitary reasons’ in the wine sector. In particular, it is appropriate to provide for such expenditure not to exceed a certain amount of the total annual expenditure on restructuring and conversion of vineyards paid by the Member State concerned in any given financial year. It should be also clarified that the costs for grubbing-up and for compensating the income foregone should not constitute eligible expenditure under this intervention, which only aims at supporting the costs for replanting after mandatory phytosanitary measures.
(20) For the purposes of the ‘restructuring and conversion of vineyards’ and ‘green harvesting’ interventions, it is appropriate to lay down rules on the measurement of areas, in particular to define what corresponds to the area planted with vines, which is of particular importance where support is paid on the basis of area-based standard scales of unit costs.
(21) To ensure a good functioning of the types of intervention in the hops sector, it is appropriate to lay down rules on the Union financial assistance calculation.
(22) To ensure a good functioning of the types of intervention in the livestock sector, it is appropriate to lay down rules on the restocking with livestock following compulsory slaughter or because of losses resulting from natural disasters.
(23) The conditions applicable to commitments to preserve on farm endangered breeds and plant varieties under threat of genetic erosion, and to activities for the conservation, the sustainable use, and the development of genetic resources in agriculture and in forestry, should contribute to the specific environmental and climate-related objectives of the CAP set out in Article 6(1), points (d), (e) and (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115. In particular, they should address the need to ensure the protection, the conservation, and the promotion of genetic diversity.
(24) Levels of animal welfare should be improved by providing support to farmers who undertake to adopt higher standards of animal husbandry, which go beyond the relevant mandatory requirements. Where animal welfare commitments are made to provide for upgraded standards of production methods, the areas should be defined. In doing so, it should be avoided that those animal welfare commitments overlap with standard farming practices, in particular vaccination to prevent pathologies.
(25) National recognised quality schemes can provide consumers with assurances on the quality and characteristics of the product or the production process. Criteria about the specificity of the final product, the access to the scheme, the verification of binding product specifications, the transparency of the scheme and the traceability of the products should be laid down with a view to optimising their support under rural development interventions. Given the special characteristics of cotton as a farm product, national quality schemes for cotton should also be covered.
(26) With a view to supporting voluntary agricultural product certification schemes recognised by the Member States under rural development interventions and being aligned to sectoral interventions, certain objective criteria should be laid down.
(27) With a view to ensure a level playing field as regards the ratio for the good agricultural and environmental condition (GAEC) standard 1 as referred to in Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, rules should be provided for the method to determine both the reference ratio and the annual ratio of permanent grassland, as well as the level at which these can be established.
(28) With a view to ensuring the protection of the share of permanent grassland, it is also appropriate to lay down that Member States should take steps to ensure reconversion of areas in the case where the share of permanent grassland has decreased below the 5 % limit. However, derogations should be provided for the cases where the absolute area of permanent grassland remain relatively stable or where the decrease of the share below the threshold is the result of conversions of area for environmentally- and climate-friendly objectives, in particular afforestation and rewetting of areas.
(29) Since Member States need to take the rules laid down in this Regulation into account when developing their CAP Strategic Plans, this Regulation should enter into force on the day following that of its publication in the
Official Journal of the European Union
,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 11

Investments in tangible and intangible assets

1.   When Member States include, in their CAP Strategic Plans, investments in tangible and intangible assets as foreseen in the fruit and vegetables sector, in the apiculture sector, in the wine sector, in the hops sector, in the olive oil and table olives sector in other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, they shall provide for the following:
(a) the tangible and the intangible assets acquired are used according to the nature, objectives and intended use by the beneficiary, as described in the related interventions of the CAP Strategic Plan and, where relevant, in the approved operational programme;
(b) without prejudice to paragraph 10, the tangible and the intangible assets acquired remain both in the property and possession of the beneficiary until the end of the fiscal depreciation period or during a period of at least 5 years to be set by Member States taking into account the nature of the assets. Each of these periods shall be calculated as of the date of the asset acquisition or as of the date on which the asset is put at the disposal of the beneficiary.
However, Member States may provide for a shorter period during which the asset shall remain in the property and possession of the beneficiary, but this period shall not be less than 3 years for the purpose of maintenance of investments or jobs created by micro, small and medium-sized enterprises within the meaning of Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC (7).
The investments in tangible assets referred to in the first subparagraph shall be made at the premises of the beneficiary or, where relevant, at the premises of its producer members or of its subsidiaries complying with the 90 % requirement referred to in Article 31(7) of this Regulation. However, in the apiculture sector, Member States may also provide in their CAP Strategic Plans, for investments in tangible assets made outside the premises of the beneficiary.
Where the investment is made on ground rented under particular national property rules, the requirement of being in the property of the beneficiary may not apply provided the asset have been in the possession of the beneficiary at least for the period required in paragraph (b) of first subparagraph.
2.   Member States may provide in their CAP Strategic Plans that support for investments in tangible and intangible assets, including those under leasing contracts, may be financed in one amount or in instalments that were approved, where relevant, in the operational programme or as so specified by Member States in the relevant interventions.
If the period referred to in paragraph 1, first subparagraph, point (b), for a given investment exceeds the length of the operational programme, Member States shall ensure that it may be carried over to a subsequent operational programme.
When Member States provide, in their CAP Strategic Plans, support for investments in tangible and intangible assets, pursuing the agro-environmental-climate related objectives referred to in Articles 46, points (e) and (f), and 57, point (b), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, such investments shall pursue one or more of the objectives listed in Article 12(1) of this Regulation.
3.   Member States may provide, in their CAP Strategic Plans, support for investments in tangible assets consisting of systems which generate energy provided that the amount of energy generated does not exceed the amount of energy that can be used on a yearly basis for the normal activities of the beneficiary.
4.   Member States may provide, in their CAP Strategic Plans, support for investments in irrigation provided that:
(a) percentages for minimum water savings targets are set up, both in terms of potential and effective reduction in water use, to be reached by the beneficiary of support, and subject to the CAP Strategic Plan demonstrating that such water savings targets have been determined taking into account the needs set out in the river basin management plans referred to in Directive 2000/60/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (8);
(b) a water meter system enabling measurement of water use at the level of the holding or the relevant production unit is in place or is put in place as part of the investment;
(c) in case of specific investments in irrigation referred to in paragraphs 5 to 8 the conditions laid down in those paragraphs are complied with.
5.   Support for investments in the improvement of an existing irrigation installation or element of irrigation infrastructure may be provided under the following conditions:
(a) the investments are assessed by the beneficiary
ex ante
as showing potential water savings reflecting the technical parameters of the existing installations or infrastructures;
(b) the investments affect bodies of groundwater or surface water whose status have been identified as less than good in the relevant river basin management plan as provided for in Directive 2000/60/EC for reasons related to water quantity, and an effective reduction in water use will be achieved contributing to the achievement of good status of these water bodies, as laid down in Article 4(1) of that Directive.
The conditions set out in the first subparagraph, points (a) and (b), shall not apply to investments, made in support of improvements of an existing irrigation installation or element of irrigation infrastructure, relating to the creation of a reservoir or to the use of reclaimed water which does not affect a body of groundwater or surface water.
6.   Support for investments in irrigation resulting in a net increase of the irrigated area affecting a given body of groundwater or surface water may be provided under the following conditions that:
(a) the status of the water body has not been identified as less than good in the relevant river basin management plan for reasons related to water quantity;
(b) an environmental impact analysis shows that there will be no significant negative environmental impact from the investment; that environmental impact analysis shall be either carried out by or approved by the competent authority.
7.   Support for investments in the use of reclaimed water as an alternative water supply may be provided under the condition that the use of such water is compliant with Regulation (EU) 2020/741 of the European Parliament and of the Council (9).
8.   Support for investments in the creation or expansion of a reservoir for the purpose of irrigation may be provided under the condition that it does not lead to significant negative environmental impact.
9.   Member States shall ensure the recovery of the Union financial assistance from the beneficiary, if one of the following situations occurs within the period referred to in paragraph 1, first subparagraph, point (b):
(a) a cessation of activity of the beneficiary or a transfer to another entity;
(b) a relocation of a productive activity outside the geographical cultivated area by the beneficiary or, where relevant, its members;
(c) a change in ownership, in particular where it gives to a firm or a public body an undue advantage; or
(d) any other significant change affecting the nature, objectives or implementation conditions of the intervention concerned which would result in undermining its original objectives.
In case of non-compliance by the beneficiary with the conditions provided by Member States in their CAP Strategic Plans on the basis of paragraphs 1 to 8 and the first subparagraph of this paragraph, Member States shall ensure the recovery of the Union financial assistance in proportion to the duration of non-compliance.
Member States may choose not to recover the Union financial assistance when the beneficiary ceases a productive activity due to a non-fraudulent bankruptcy.
If a producer member leaves its organisation or producer group, Member States shall ensure that the investment or its residual value is recovered by the beneficiary and that its residual value is added to the operational fund.
In duly justified circumstances, Member States may provide that the beneficiary is not required to recover the investment or its residual value.
10.   Where the assets, for which investments were supported, are replaced, the residual value of the investments replaced shall be:
(a) added to the operational fund of the producer organisation; or
(b) subtracted from the cost of the replacement.
Notwithstanding the first subparagraph, Member States cannot provide in their CAP Strategic Plans the mere replacement of investments by identical assets.
11.   Member States shall not provide support for investments specified as interventions in their CAP Strategic Plans, if those interventions receive support pursuant to Article 58(1), first subparagraph, points (h) to (k), of that Regulation.

Article 12

Interventions related to agri-environment-climate objectives

1.   When Member States include, in their CAP Strategic Plans, interventions pursuing agri-environment-climate objectives in the fruit and vegetables sector, in the apiculture sector, in the wine sector, in the hops sector, in the olive oil and table olives sector or in other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, they shall provide in their CAP Strategic Plans that the interventions covered pursue one of the following aims:
(a) achieving a reduction in the current use of production inputs, emission of pollutants or waste from the production process;
(b) achieving the replacement of the use of energy from fossil fuel sources with renewable energy sources;
(c) achieving a reduction in the environmental risks linked to the use of certain production inputs or to the production of certain residues, including plant protection products, fertilisers, manure or other animal dejections;
(d) achieving a reduction in water use;
(e) being linked to non-productive investments needed to achieve the agri-environment-climate related objectives, in particular where those objectives relate to the protection of habitats and biodiversity;
(f) achieving an effective and measurable reduction of greenhouse gas emissions or a durable carbon sequestration;
(g) increasing the resilience of the production to risks linked to climate change, such as soil erosion;
(h) achieving conservation, sustainable use and development of genetic resources; or
(i) leading to the protection or an improvement of the environment.
Member States shall ensure that beneficiaries provide evidence of the expected positive contribution to one or more environmental objectives at the moment of the submission for approval of the proposed operational programme, of the intervention or of the amendment of such programme or intervention.
2.   The interventions referred to in paragraph 1, shall be made at the premises of the beneficiary or, where relevant, at the premises of its producer members or at the premises of its subsidiaries complying with the 90 % requirement referred to in Article 31(7) of this Regulation. However, in the apiculture sector, Member States may also provide in their CAP Strategic Plans, for such interventions made outside the premises of the beneficiary. The expected benefit and additional impact of the intervention related to agri-environment-climate objectives has to be demonstrated
ex ante
through project specifications or other technical documents to be presented by the beneficiary at the moment of the submission for approval of the operation, operational programme or amendment of such a programme or operation, showing the results that could be obtained through the implementation of the intervention.
3.   When determining the expenditure to be covered, Member States shall take into account the additional costs incurred and income foregone resulting from the implemented interventions related to agri-environment-climate objectives, and the targets set.
4.   Member States shall ensure that beneficiaries implementing interventions related to agri-environment-climate objectives have access to the relevant knowledge and information required to implement such interventions, and that appropriate training is made available for those who require it, as well as access to expertise in order to assist farmers who commit to change their production systems.
5.   Member States shall ensure that a revision clause is provided in the operational programmes for operations implemented under interventions related to agri-environment-climate objectives in the fruit and vegetables sector, in the hops sector, in the olive oil and table olives sector, and in other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, in order to ensure their adjustment in the case of amendments to any relevant mandatory standards, requirements or obligations.

Article 13

Coaching

1.   When Member States include, in their CAP Strategic Plans, coaching interventions in the fruit and vegetables sector, in the hops sector, in the olive oil and table olives sector, or in other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, they shall provide in their CAP Strategic Plans that the interventions covered pursue one of the following objectives:
(a) exchanging best practices related to crisis prevention and management interventions helping the beneficiary to benefit from experience with implementation of crisis prevention and risk management interventions;

For products with a short shelf-life in their fresh stage, Member States shall provide for the product to be stored frozen or in a processed form. Products for which a certain maturation period is required in their normal production process, or where such maturation process increases the value of the product, are only eligible for collective storage once that maturation period is fully completed.
2.   Member States shall fix, for each product for which this intervention is provided in their CAP Strategic Plans, the minimum storage duration and the maximum amount of compensation per unit of product and per day of storage, as well as the relevant storage conditions. The maximum amount that can be financed with the operational fund shall not be higher than the sum of the cost of the physical storage, in the frozen or processed form where relevant, and the financial cost due to immobilising the value of the product at current market prices. This maximum amount shall not include the possible freezing or processing costs or the possible devaluation of the product. Member States shall fix also the control procedures, including on-the-spot checks, to assure the non-substitution of the products as well as the respect of the storage conditions and of the storage period.

Section 2

Forms of support and types of expenditure

Article 21

Forms of support

1.   In the sectors referred to in Article 42 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, Member States shall provide for payments of support on the basis of the actual costs incurred by the beneficiary, supported by documents, such as invoices, submitted by the beneficiaries for the implementation of an intervention specified in their CAP Strategic Plan.
However, Member States may choose to provide for payment of support on the basis of standard flat rates, scales of unit costs or lump sums. When establishing those flat rates, scales and lump sums, Member States shall take into account regional or local specificities and base their calculation on documentary evidence demonstrating that the calculation reflects the market price of the operations or actions covered by the intervention concerned.
2.   In the fruit and vegetables sector, Member States shall respect the maximum amounts of expenditure and the conditioning costs which may be paid in relation to the relevant interventions specified in their CAP Strategic Plans set out in Annexes V and VII.
3.   Where Member States provide, in their CAP Strategic Plans, for payment of support in the form of standard flat rates, scales of unit costs or lump sums, those shall be reviewed periodically in order to take account an indexation or an economic change.
4.   When Member States use the fair, equitable and verifiable calculation method established pursuant to Article 44(2), point (a), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, they shall keep all the documentary evidence concerning the establishment of standard flat rates, scales of unit costs or lump sums and their review as referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article.
5.   Where Member States include, in their CAP Strategic Plans, interventions in the wine sector related to the restructuring and conversion of vineyards and investments in tangible and intangible assets, the following rules shall apply:
(a) if Member States decide to calculate the amount of the support on the basis of standard scales of unit costs based on a surface measurement unit, the amount shall correspond to the actual surface measured in accordance with Article 42 of this Regulation;
(b) if Member States decide to calculate the amount of the support on the basis of standard scales of unit costs based on other measurement units or on the basis of the actual costs resulting from supporting documents to be submitted by the beneficiaries, they shall lay down rules on appropriate control methods to establish the actual extent of implementation of the operation.
6.   This Article shall not apply to Union financial assistance for the distillation of by-products of wine making carried out in accordance with the restrictions laid down in Part II, Section D, of Annex VIII to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.

2.   Types of expenditure referred to in paragraph 1 shall not include the types of expenditure listed in Annex II.
3.   The types of expenditure listed in Annex III shall be considered eligible by Member States when defining the relevant interventions and may be covered by the operational programmes or as so specified by Member States in the relevant interventions. Member States may consider eligible other types of expenditure in their CAP Strategic Plans provided they are not listed in Annex II.
4.   Member States shall establish, in their CAP Strategic Plans, the conditions under which expenditures linked to interventions referred to in Articles 11 and 12 may be counted as contributing to the objectives of 15 % and 2 % of expenditure under operational programmes as referred to in Article 50(7), points (a) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, respectively, and of 5 % of expenditure under interventions as referred to in Article 60(4) of that Regulation.

Article 23

Administrative and personnel costs

1.   Personnel costs incurred by the beneficiary, subsidiaries within the meaning of Article 31(7) or, subject to Member State’s approval, by a cooperative which is member of a producer organisation shall be considered eligible for support if they are incurred in relation to the preparation, implementation or follow-up of a particular supported intervention.
Such personnel costs shall include, inter alia, costs of personnel contracted by the beneficiary and the costs corresponding to the share of the working hours invested in the implementation of an intervention by its permanent staff.
Member States shall ensure that the beneficiary submits supporting documents setting out the details of the work actually carried out in relation to the particular intervention and that the value of the related personnel cost can be independently assessed and verified. The value of personnel cost related to a particular intervention shall not exceed the costs generally accepted on the market in question for the same kind of service.
For the purpose of determining personnel costs linked to the implementation of an intervention by the permanent personnel of the beneficiary, the hourly rate applicable may be calculated by dividing the last documented annual gross employment costs of the specific employees that have worked in the implementation of the operation by 1 720 hours, or on pro rata basis in case of part-time employees.
For the interventions ‘promotion, communication and marketing’ and ‘communication actions’ referred to in Article 47(1), point (f), and (2), point (l), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 and for the actions by interbranch organisations and promotion and communication carried out in third countries as referred to in Article 58(1), first subparagraph, points (i), (j) and (k), of that Regulation, the expenditure paid for administrative and personnel costs directly incurred by the beneficiaries shall not exceed 50 % of the overall cost of the intervention.
2.   Administrative costs incurred by the beneficiary, subsidiaries within the meaning of Article 31(7) or, subject to Member State’s approval, by a cooperative which is member of a producer organisation shall be considered eligible for support if they are incurred in relation to the preparation, implementation or follow-up of a particular supported intervention.
The administrative costs shall be considered eligible if they do not exceed 4 % of the total eligible costs of the implemented intervention.
The costs of external audits shall be considered eligible for support where such audits are performed by an independent and qualified external body.
3.   Member States may provide in their CAP Strategic Plans, for the fruit and vegetables sector, for the hops sector, for the olive oil and table olives sector or for other sectors referred to in Article 42, point (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, a standard flat rate for the personnel and administrative costs linked to the management of the operational fund or the preparation, implementation and follow-up of the operational programme up to a maximum of 2 % of the operational fund approved, comprising both the Union financial assistance and the contribution of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group.

Basis for the calculation of Union financial assistance

Article 30

Value of marketed production for newly recognised organisations or groups

Where, during the 3 years following its recognition, historical data on marketed production for a producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations, or producer group in the sectors referred to in Articles 42, points (a), (e) and (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 is not available for the 3 previous years, Member States shall accept the value of marketed or marketable production during a period of 12 consecutive months communicated by the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations, or producer group for which the organisation concerned or the producer group can prove at the satisfaction of the Member State that it has the actual capacity to market it on behalf of its producer members.
However, if the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group has communicated the value of the marketed production for the purpose of its recognition, only this value shall be accepted by the Member State.

Article 31

Basis for calculation of the value of marketed production

1.   The value of marketed production for a producer organisation, transnational producer organisation, or producer group in the sectors referred to in Article 42, points (a), (e) and (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 shall be calculated on the basis of the production of the producer organisation, transnational producer organisation, or producer group itself and its producer members that has been put on the market by this organisation or group, and shall only include the production of those products for which the producer organisation, transnational producer organisation, or producer group is recognised. The value of marketed production may include products that are not required to conform to the marketing standards, where those standards do not apply.
The value of marketed production for an association of producer organisation or a transnational association of producer organisations shall be calculated on the basis of the production marketed by the association of producer organisations or transnational association of producer organisations itself and by its member producer organisations, and shall only include the production of those products for which the association of producer organisations or transnational association of producer organisations is recognised. However, where operational programmes are approved for an association of producer organisation or a transnational association of producer organisations and separately for its member producer organisations, the value of marketed production counted for the operational programmes of the members shall not be taken into account for the calculation of the value of the marketed production of the association.
In addition, for sectors listed in Article 42, points (e) and (f), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, the value of marketed production may also include the value of the production covered by contracts negotiated by the producer organisation, transnational producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group on behalf of its members.
2.   The value of marketed production shall be calculated at fresh stage or the first processing stage on which the product is normally marketed, in bulk where products are allowed to be marketed in bulk, and shall not include the cost of further processing or further conditioning or the value of final processed products. Member States shall indicate in their CAP Strategic Plans how the value of marketed production is calculated for each sector.
The value of the marketed production of fruit and vegetables intended for processing, which have been transformed into one of the processed fruit and vegetable products listed in Annex I, Part X, to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 or any other processed product referred to in this paragraph, by either a producer organisation, an association of producer organisations or their producer members or subsidiaries complying with paragraph 7 of this Article, either by themselves or through outsourcing, shall be calculated as a flat rate in percentage applied to the invoiced value of those processed products. That flat rate shall be:
(a) 53 % for fruit juices;
(b) 73 % for concentrated juices;
(c) 77 % for tomato concentrate;
(d) 62 % for frozen fruit and vegetables;
(e) 48 % for canned fruit and vegetables;
(f) 70 % for canned mushrooms of Agaricus bisporus and other cultivated mushrooms preserved in brine;
(g) 81 % for fruits provisionally preserved in brine;
(h) 81 % for dried fruits;
(i) 27 % for processed fruit and vegetables other than those referred to in points (a) to (h);
(j) 12 % for processed aromatic herbs;
(k) 41 % for paprika powder.
3.   Member States may allow the beneficiary to include the value of the by-products in the value of marketed production.
4.   The value of marketed production shall include the value of market withdrawals for free distribution. The value of withdrawals for free distribution shall be calculated on the basis of the average price of those products marketed by the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group in the period concerned.
5.   Only the production of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations, producer group, or its producer members which is marketed by that producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group shall be counted in the value of marketed production.
The production of the producer members of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group marketed by another producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group designated by their own organisation shall be counted in the value of marketed production of the organisation, association or group that marketed the production. Double counting shall be prohibited.
6.   Except where paragraph 7 applies, the marketed production of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group shall be invoiced at the ‘ex-producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group’ stage ready for marketing, excluding:
(a) VAT;
(b) costs of transport internal to the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group.
7.   However, the value of marketed production may also be calculated at the ‘ex-subsidiary’ stage, on the basis set out in paragraph 6, provided that at least 90 % of the shares or capital of the subsidiary is owned:
(a) by one producer organisation or association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group; or
(b) subject to Member State approval, by producer members of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group, if doing so contributes to the objectives listed in Article 152(1), point (c), of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013.
8.   In case of outsourcing, the value of marketed production shall be calculated at the ‘ex-producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group’ stage and shall include the added economic value of the activity that has been outsourced by the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group to its members, third parties or to another subsidiary than the one referred to in paragraph 7.
9.   Where a reduction in production occurs due to a natural disaster, climatic event, plant or animal diseases or pest infestations, any insurance indemnification received in respect of harvest or production insurance actions referred to in Article 18, or equivalent actions managed by the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group, or its producer members, due to those causes may be included in the value of marketed production of the 12-month reference period in which it is actually paid.

Article 32

Reference period and ceiling on Union financial assistance

1.   Member States shall determine for each producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group a 12-month reference period, starting no earlier than 1 January of the year that is 3 years prior to the year for which the aid is requested and ending no later than 31 December of the year preceding the year for which the aid is requested.
The 12-month reference period shall be the accounting period of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group concerned.
The methodology for fixing the reference period shall not vary during a programme except in duly justified situations.
2.   Member States shall decide whether the ceiling on Union financial assistance to the operational fund is calculated each year, either:
(a) on the basis of the value of the marketed production during the reference period of the producers who are members of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group on 1 January of the year for which the aid is requested; or
(b) on the basis of the actual value of the marketed production in the reference period concerned of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group concerned. In that case, the rule shall apply to all non-transnational beneficiaries in that Member State.
3.   Where for a product a reduction of at least 35 % in the value of marketed production for a given year in relation to the average of three previous 12-month reference periods has occurred, the following shall apply:
(a) if the reduction occurred due to reasons falling outside the responsibility and control of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group, the value of marketed production of that product shall be deemed to represent 65 % of the average value in the three previous 12-month reference periods;
(b) if the reduction occurred due to natural disasters, climatic events, plant diseases or pest infestations falling outside the responsibility and control of the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group, the value of marketed production of that product shall be deemed to represent 85 % of the average value in the three previous 12-month reference periods.
In both cases, the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group shall prove to the competent authority of the Member State concerned that those reasons were falling outside its responsibility and control.
Where the producer organisation, association of producer organisations, transnational producer organisation, transnational association of producer organisations or producer group proves to the Member State concerned that those reasons were falling outside its responsibility and control and that they have taken the necessary preventive measures, the value of marketed production of that product shall be deemed to represent 100 % of its average value in the three previous 12-month reference periods.

CHAPTER III

TITLE V

RULES ON THE RATIO FOR GAEC STANDARD
1

Article 48

Rules on the ratio for GAEC standard 1

1.   For the maintenance of permanent grassland in relation with GAEC standard 1 as listed in Annex III to Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, Member States shall ensure that the ratio of permanent grassland in relation to agricultural area does not decrease by more than 5 % compared to a reference ratio to be established by each Member State in its CAP Strategic Plan by dividing areas of permanent grassland by the total agricultural area.
For the purpose of establishing the reference ratio referred to in the first subparagraph:
(a) ‘areas of permanent grassland’ means permanent grassland declared in 2018 in accordance with Article 72(1), first subparagraph, point (a), of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (16) by farmers receiving direct payments, and determined as referred to in Article 2(1), second subparagraph, point (23), of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014 (17), where necessary adjusted by Member States to take into account the impact of a possible change, in particular in the definition of permanent grassland to be established by Member States in accordance with Article 4(3), point (c), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115;
(b) ‘total agricultural area’ means the agricultural area declared in 2018 in accordance with Article 72(1), first subparagraph, point (a), of Regulation (EU) No 1306/2013 by farmers receiving direct payments and determined as referred to in Article 2(1), second subparagraph, point (23), of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 640/2014, where necessary adjusted by Member States, in particular to take into account the impact of a possible change in the definition of agricultural areas to be established by Member States in accordance with Article 4(3) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115.
2.   The ratio of permanent grassland shall be established each year on the basis of the areas declared for that year by the beneficiaries receiving direct payments pursuant to Title III, Chapter II, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 or the annual payments pursuant to Articles 70, 71 and 72 of that Regulation in accordance with Article 67(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116 of the European Parliament and of the Council (18).
Member States may establish the ratio of permanent grassland and the reference ratio at national, regional, sub-regional, group of holdings or holding level.
3.   Where it is established that the ratio referred to in paragraph 2 has decreased by more than 5 % at the level at which the GAEC standard 1 is implemented, the Member State concerned shall impose obligations at holding level to reconvert land into permanent grassland or to establish an area of permanent grassland for some or all of the farmers who have land at their disposal which was converted from permanent grassland into land for other uses during a period in the past.
However, where the area of permanent grassland in a given year is maintained, in absolute, terms within 0,5 % of the areas of permanent grassland established in accordance with paragraph 1, second subparagraph, point (a), the obligation set out in paragraph 1, first subparagraph, shall be considered to have been complied with.
4.   Paragraph 3, first subparagraph, shall not apply where the decrease below the threshold of 5 % is the result of commitments undertaken or obligations, as referred to in Article 4(4), points (b) and (c), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 due to which an agricultural activity is no longer performed on the areas in question, and which do not include plantations of Christmas trees or cultivation of crops or trees for energy production.
5.   For the purpose of calculating the ratio referred to in paragraph 2, areas reconverted into permanent grassland or established as permanent grassland in accordance with paragraph 3, or established as permanent grassland as part of the Member States implementation of GAEC standard 1, shall be considered as permanent grassland as of the first day of the reconversion or establishment. Those areas shall be used to grow grasses or other herbaceous forage in compliance with the definition provided for in Article 4(3), point (c), of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, at least for 5 consecutive years following the reconversion or establishment, or for areas already used to grow grasses or other herbaceous forage, for the remaining number of years to reach 5 consecutive years.

ANNEX I

Union method for the verification of hemp varieties and the determination of the Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol content in hemp varieties referred to in Article 3

1.   

Scope
The method set out in this Annex seeks to determine the Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (hereinafter referred to as ‘THC content’ of varieties of hemp (
Cannabis sativa
L.). As appropriate, the method involves applying procedure A or B as described in this Annex.
The method is based on the quantitative determination of THC by gas chromatography (GC) after extraction with a suitable solvent.

1.1.   

Procedure A
Procedure A shall be used for checks on the production of hemp, where the control sample for on-the-spot checks carried out each year cover at least 30 % of the areas declared for the production of hemp in accordance with Article 4(4), second subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115.

1.2.   

Procedure B
Procedure B shall be used where a Member State introduces a system of prior approval for the cultivation of hemp, and the minimum level for the on-the-spot checks covers at least 20 % of the areas declared for the production of hemp in accordance with Article 4(4), second subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115.

2.   

Sampling

2.1.   

Conditions for taking the samples
The samples shall be taken during the day following a systematic pattern to ensure that the sample is representative of the field, but excluding the edges of the crop.

2.1.1.   

Procedure A
In a standing crop of a given variety of hemp, a 30 cm part containing at least one female inflorescence of each plant selected shall be taken. Sampling shall be carried out during the period running from 20 days after the start of flowering to 10 days after the end of flowering.
Member States may authorise sampling to be carried out during the period from the start of flowering to 20 days after the start of flowering provided that, for each variety grown, other representative samples are taken in accordance with the first paragraph during the period from 20 days after the start of flowering to 10 days after the end of flowering.
For hemp cultivated as catch crop, in the absence of female inflorescences, the top 30 cm of the plant stem shall be taken. In that case sampling shall be carried out just before the end of the vegetation period, once the leaves begin presenting the first signs of yellowing, however no later than the onset of a forecast period of frost.

2.1.2.   

Procedure B
In a standing crop of a given variety of hemp, the upper third of each plant selected shall be taken. Sampling shall be carried out during the 10 days following the end of flowering or, for hemp cultivated as catch crop, in the absence of female inflorescences, just before the end of the vegetation period, once the leaves begin presenting the first sign of yellowing, but no later than the onset of a forecast period of frost. In the case of dioecious varieties, only female plants shall be taken.

2.2.   

Sample size
Procedure A: the sample shall comprise parts of 50 plants per field.
Procedure B: the sample shall comprise parts of 200 plants per field.
Each sample shall be placed in a fabric or paper bag, without crushing it, and be sent to the laboratory for analysis.
Member States may provide for a second sample to be collected for counter-analysis, if required, to be kept either by the producer or by the body responsible for the analysis.

2.3.   

Drying and storage of the sample
Drying of the samples shall begin as soon as possible and, in any case, within 48 hours using any method below 70 °C.
Samples shall be dried to a constant weight and to a moisture content of between 8 % and 13 %.
After drying, the samples shall be stored without crushing them at below 25 °C in a dark place.

3.   

Determination of THC content

3.1.   

Preparation of the test sample
Stems and seeds over 2 mm in size shall be removed from the dried samples.
The dried samples shall be grinded to obtain a semi-fine powder (passing through a 1 mm mesh sieve).
The powder may be stored for 10 weeks at below 25 °C in a dark, dry place.

3.2.   

Reagents and extraction solution

Reagents
— Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, pure for chromatographic purposes,
— squalane, pure for chromatographic purposes, as an internal standard.

Extraction solution
— 35 mg of squalane per 100 ml hexane.

3.3.   

Extraction of THC
100 mg of the powdered test sample shall be weighed, be placed in a centrifuge tube and 5 ml of extraction solution shall be added containing the internal standard.
The sample shall be placed in an ultrasound bath and be left for 20 minutes. It shall be centrifuged for 5 minutes at 3 000 r.p.m. and then the supernatant THC solution shall be removed. The solution shall be injected into the chromatograph and a quantitative analysis shall be carried out.

3.4.   

Gas chromatography
(a) Apparatus
— gas chromatograph with a flame ionisation detector and a split/splitless injector,
— column allowing good separation of cannabinoids, for example a glass capillary column 25 m long and 0,22 mm in diameter impregnated with a 5 % non-polar phenyl-methyl-siloxane phase.
(b) Calibration ranges
At least three points for procedure A and five points for procedure B, including points 0,04 and 0,50 mg/ml THC in extraction solution.
(c) Experimental conditions
The following conditions are given as an example for the column referred to in point (a):
— oven temperature 260 °C,
— injector temperature 300 °C,
— detector temperature 300 °C.
(d) Volume injected: 1 μl.

4.   

Results
The findings shall be expressed to two decimal places in grams of THC per 100 grams of analytical sample dried to constant weight. A tolerance of 0,03 g per 100 g shall apply.
— Procedure A: one determination per test sample.
However, where the result obtained is above the limit laid down in Article 4(4), second subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, a second determination shall be carried out per analysis sample and the mean value of the two determinations shall be taken as the result.
— Procedure B: the result shall correspond to the mean value of two determinations per test sample.
