Article 5, third paragraph, of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 provides that the Commission may fix the conversion rates, the processing costs and the value of the by-products to be taken into consideration, when applying the said Regulation, for the purpose of converting values or quantities relating to the various stages of the processing of rice (paddy, husked, semi-milled or milled).

(3)

To that end, account should be taken of the information obtained from the best equipped industries of the Community.

(4)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the Opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,

—

reducing the amount thus obtained by the processing costs fixed in Article 2(1).

The conversion of the value of a quantity of paddy rice into the value of the same quantity of husked rice shall be effected by:

—

multiplying the amount thus obtained by the rate fixed in Article 1(1) for paddy rice.

2.   The conversion of the value of a quantity of husked rice into the value of the same quantity of milled rice shall be effected by:

The conversion of a quantity of paddy rice or milled rice into a corresponding quantity of husked rice shall be effected by dividing the quantity to be converted by the rate fixed in Article 1(1) for paddy rice or by the rate fixed in Article 1(2) for milled rice, as the case may be.

2.   The conversion of a quantity of milled rice into a corresponding quantity of semi-milled rice shall be effected by multiplying the quantity to be converted by the rate fixed in Article 1(3) for semi-milled rice.
