ANNEX ISupplementary provisions

ANNEX I The specification for the protected geographical indication ‘Lammefjordsgulerod’ is amended as follows: (a) Description of product for : ‘ “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots are very smooth and crunchy and very seldom turn greyish after washing. They are characterised by their relatively high dry matter and very high carotene content. Their sugar content is also relatively high.’, read : ‘The “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrot is very smooth and crisp and has very little tendency to turn grey after washing. Its dry matter is relatively high, like its sugar content. Its carotene content is also very high. The “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrot must fulfil the “Class I” requirements laid down in the UNECE standard for carrots (FFV-10).’ (b) Geographical area for : ‘The “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrot comes from the reclaimed area of the Lammefjord, which is physically delimited by the Ringkanal and the Audebo dam. Lammefjord is situated in Odsherred on Zealand, Denmark. Svinninge Vejle is part of the drained Lammefjord at the innermost end of the fjord. The area was drained before Lammefjord, primarily because it was narrow and shallow. Sidinge Fjord is also a reclaimed area of Isefjord, located north of Lammefjord. Klintsø is the northernmost area. This was originally a fjord but the mouth was blocked by natural silting. The area is also surrounded by drainage channels. The fact that it is grown on the reclaimed seabed of the Lammefjord, which has a layer of silt (as described under “Link”), is a special condition for the production of the product. The carrot is grown in accordance with the rules for the integrated production of field vegetables which is monitored by the Crops Directorate ( Plantedirektoratet ).’, read : ‘The Lammefjord region is made up of four reclaimed fjord areas in Odsherred on Zealand (Denmark): — the reclaimed portion of the Lammefjord, which is physically delimited by the Ringkanal and the Audebo dam; — Svinninge Vejle, which is bounded to the south, west and north by the Ringkanal and to the east by the Svinninge-Hørve railway line; — Sidinge Fjord, which is delimited by Sidinge dam and a surface water channel; — Klintsø, which is delimited by drainage channels.’ (c) Proof of origin for : ‘ “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots must be washed and packed by approved washing enterprises on Lammefjord. One of the conditions imposed on an approved washing enterprise is that records are kept of receipt of carrots from the growing location and a clear physical separation of Lammefjord carrots from any other carrots grown on normal sandy soil outside the named areas is guaranteed. The Crops Directorate's IP check is a further check on these conditions.’, read : ‘ “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots must be washed and packed by approved washing enterprises on Lammefjord, which is where documentary evidence of origin is kept. One of the conditions imposed on an approved washing enterprise is that records are kept of receipt of carrots from the growing location and a clear physical separation of “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots from any other carrots grown on normal sandy soil outside the named areas is guaranteed.’ (d) Method of production for : ‘ “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots are grown in accordance with the rules for the integrated production of field vegetables/Dansk Miljøgrønt, the objective of which is to guarantee both yield and quality. For plant protection, for example, cultivation measures and biological control measures are preferred to chemicals where possible. Some of the main areas which are subject to guidelines or requirements are: — cultivation methods — fertilisation — irrigation — plant protection (early warning, pest and fungal control) — harvesting, storage and packaging — management/training — advice, documentation and monitoring’, read : ‘ “Lammefjordsgulerod” carrots must be grown in accordance with the GlobalG.A.P. (Global Partnership for Good Agricultural Practices) standard which sets the framework for Good Agricultural Practice. The standard lays down documentation requirements for quality control, environmental management, minimising the use of plant protection products, traceability, food safety and risk assessment of the working environment and food hygiene. Carrot packing centres in the Lammefjord region that wash, sort and pack carrots are also subject to the GlobalG.A.P. standard.’ (e) Inspection body for : ‘Name : Plantedirektoratet Address : Skovbrynet 18, DK-1250 Copenhagen’, read : ‘Name : Inge Bodil Jochumsen, AgroManagement Address : Kirketoften 5, 5610 Assens, tel. 51 24 49 89, website: agromanagement.dk’ (f) Labelling for : ‘The Crops Directorate's provisions concerning labelling must be complied with: 1) For carrots presented in packages, each wholesale package must bear the following particulars marked legibly, indelibly and visibly from the outside: a) Identification — Packer and/or dispatcher: Name and address or officially issued or accepted code mark: “Lammefjordsgulerod” b) Nature of produce — Name of the variety for the “Extra” class and (if the contents are not visible from the outside): — “bunches of carrots” or “carrots” — “early carrots” or “main-crop carrots” c) Origin of produce — Denmark — Lammefjord d) Commercial specifications — class — size expressed by — minimum and maximum diameters or weight per carrot (if sized) — number of bunches (for carrots presented in bunches) e) Official control mark (optional) 2) For carrots transported in bulk (loaded directly into a vehicle or vehicle compartment), the above particulars must appear on a document accompanying the goods or on a notice placed in a visible position inside the vehicle.’, read : ‘All packaging, be it in prepacked or open form, must bear the following: a) Name and address of packing centre b) “Lammefjordens Grøntsagslaug” (“Lammefjord Vegetable Association”) logo c) Class’
