Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72 of 18 May 1972 on the common organization of the market in fruit and vegetables (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1351/86 (2),

Whereas, pursuant to Article 16 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 1035/72, a basic price and a buying-in price must be fixed for each marketing year for each of the products listed in Annex II to that Regulation; whereas the products in question, harvested in a given production year, are marketed, as regards:
