82It follows clearly from all the abovementioned provisions of the Community legislation on Community aid schemes and the detailed rules for implementing the IACS that the Member States enjoy a measure of discretion as regards the supporting documents and the evidence to be required from an aid applicant in relation to the forage areas covered by the application. In the light of that discretion, it is permissible for the Member States to lay down more detailed rules as to the evidence to be submitted in support of an aid application by referring, in particular, to the usual practices in their territory in the field of agriculture as regards the enjoyment and use of the forage areas, and the legal documents to be produced in respect of that use.
