35. In a second step the value of all contract payment crops produced on farms that also produce upland cotton is determined. Therefore, the total amount of acreage planted to each of the contract payment crops is multiplied by the average yield and the average farm price for the crop. This is shown in the following four tables.

36. The following table shows the share that the upland cotton value represents of the total value of contract payments crops produced on farms that also produce upland cotton.

37. Finally, Brazil applies these percentages (the share of upland cotton value of total contract payment crop value) to the total amount of contract payments, as calculated in the first step. The resulting figures represent the total amount of contract payments that constitute support to upland cotton under this methodology. The following table shows the amount of support to upland cotton if an Annex IV-type methodology is applied to allocate the value of contract payments over the total value of contract crops produced on farms that also produce upland cotton.
