Whereas the sound operation of the aid scheme per hectare requires in particular that Community aids should not be paid in combination in respect of the same area; whereas only aids granted to improve agricultural production structures, excluding any allowance to offset loss of income, during the period of application of such aids should be considered compatible with the abovementioned principle; whereas, as a consequence, aids or allowances provided for by Council Regulation (EEC) No 895/85 of 1 April 1985 on a common measure to improve the structures of the wine-making sector in Greece (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (4), and the Commission Decision of 5 July 1989 for granting financial assitance from EAGGF, Guidance Section, for an operational programme to combat phylloxera which has affected the vineyards of Crete (Greece) (5) should accordingly be excluded; whereas the provisions in force should accordingly be made more flexible and defined more closely and Article 3 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2911/90 (6) should be amended accordingly;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Products Processed from Fruit and Vegetables,
