Recital 9

(9) The Court of Justice of the European Union has determined that, once the Union has legislated for the establishment of a common organisation of the market in a given sector of agriculture, Member States are obliged to refrain from taking any measure that might undermine or create exceptions to it (11). For that reason, this Regulation should not apply to aid for amounts fixed on the basis of the price or quantity of products purchased or put on the market in the agricultural sector. It should also not apply to aid linked to an obligation to share the aid with primary agricultural producers. These principles also apply to the fishery and aquaculture sector.
