Annex 2 (RNVBl.No.50/42) introduces the publication of the premiums ordered in the Reich in the areas of the poultry, egg and honey industries and the dairy and fat industries. For eggs delivered in excess of the prescribed minimum quantity, a premium was already granted in the Protectorate in 1994l.
