For the purpose of ensuring adequate financing for the new type of intervention for crisis payments to farmers following natural disasters, adverse climatic events or catastrophic events, Member States should be able to reserve a certain share of EAFRD funding for that type of intervention. However, with a view of ensuring that sufficient financing remains available to cover the other CAP priorities, that share should be limited to a maximum annual amount available per Member State corresponding to 3 % of the combined total of the direct payments and the EAFRD funding per year.
