Portugal is hereby authorized for a period of eight years to carry out in the regions referred to in the Annex attached a programme for the conversion of land currently under arable crops to extensive livestock production, up to a maximum of 200 000 hectares. To this end, Portugal shall be allotted a specific autonomous national reserve. Further provisions describe the procedure for obtaining premium rights. The Portuguese authorities must guarantee the compliance with these provisions by adopting measures such as verification of the eligibility of declared areas and checks to ascertain that arable crops are no longer produced on the declared areas which have been duly destined to extensive livestock production.
