62Neither the definition of ‘holding’ in Article 3(b) of Regulation No 1254/1999 nor the reference to ‘the area of the holding … available’ in Article 12(2)(b) thereof support the inference that, when submitting his aid application, a producer must, by virtue of that regulation and in order to be able to receive the premiums concerned, produce a valid legal document which either shows that he is himself the owner of the area taken into account, or attests to the fact that he holds another kind of legal right to use the area.
