Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Payments based on overall farming income allow farmers to produce any agricultural commodity. However, by increasing overall farm receipts, they also influence farmers' decisions to stay in the sector. As most of the programmes in this category are, in practice, region-specific in their basic conditions or implementation requirements, they are, as far as possible, allocated to the relevant commodities. 3, record 2, English, - payment%20based%20on%20overall%20farming%20income

Les paiements au titre du revenu global de l'exploitation sont intégralement reçus et conservés par les exploitants puisque la condition de leur versement en compensation d’une perte de revenu est d’être exploitant agricole; cette perte de revenu est mesurée par l'écart entre le revenu global actuel d’exploitation et un niveau de revenu prédéterminé. Ainsi, les paiements compensent la différence de rémunération des ressources propres des exploitants après modification de leurs pratiques agricoles ou des conditions du marché ou naturelles. Chaque dollar versé au titre de ces paiements se traduit par un dollar de revenu supplémentaire, ce qui leur confère la plus grande efficacité de transfert de revenu aux exploitants agricoles et permet d’atteindre l'objectif de revenu. 2, record 2, French, - paiement%20au%20titre%20du%20revenu%20global%20de%20l%27exploitation
