areas under vines

My second point relates to the free market in the rights of areas under vines.

As regards the planting of vines, we have made great efforts over the past ten years to reduce the areas under vines.

Furthermore, the proposal that producers undertaking to grub up areas under vines will simultaneously be granted replanting rights will also lead to a considerable expansion in production potential. This expansion could even be substantially greater than the 35 000 hectares which we are to achieve with the additional percentage.
