Arable Area Payments Regulations 1995 (S.I. No. 1738 of 1995).

These Regulations, which apply throughout Great Britain, implement and supplement provisions of Council Regulation No. 1765/92, which establishes a support system for producers of certain arable crops. Producers of particular crops are entitled to receive compensatory payment, calculated according to the area which they have sown with such crops. The payment varies with the production region in which the land lies. Article 7 of the Council Regulation requires all producers claiming compensatory payments to set part of their land aside for two years. Regulations 6 to 9 and the Schedules make provision for the setting aside of land.
(3 Schedules: derogation from the requirement to have farmed land set aside for two years (1); Management requirements in relation to land set-aside (2); Requirements in relation to land set aside for the provision of specified raw materials (3)).
