Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 1364/2013 amending Regulation (EC) No. 889/2008 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No. 834/2007 as regards the use of non-organic aquaculture juveniles and non-organic seed of bivalve shellfish in organic aquaculture.

By virtue of stated insufficient availability of organic juveniles and shellfish seed on the market to comply with the requirements of articles 25e and 25o of Regulation (EC) No. 889/2008 (which concerns organic production), the present Regulation postpones the application of the percentage provided for in article 25e(3) and the third subparagraph of 25(1) of Regulation (EC) No. 889/2008 by one year until 31 December 2014. It is therefore stipulated that maximum percentage of non-organic aquaculture juveniles introduced to the farm shall be 80 percent by 31 December 2011, 50 percent by 31 December 2014 and 0 percent by 31 December 2015.
