Taking into account the severe structural imbalance that exists in certain wine producing regions, it is appropriate to allow Member States to finance permanent grubbing up of productive vineyards through their CAP Strategic Plans. Therefore, a new type of intervention in the wine sector should be added to Article 58(1), first subparagraph, of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115. Like the permanent grubbing up measure funded by national payments, referred to in Article 216 of Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013, that new type of intervention, namely permanent grubbing up should be subject to specific conditions, such as a prohibition on holding or obtaining a valid planting authorisation during a certain period or restrictions imposed by Member States in relation to areas excluded from the scope of the intervention where vineyards play an important environmental, landscape preservation or socio-economic role.
