Abstract

The purpose of the research is to summarize the trends of legislative, regulatory and legal regulation of the EU regarding the admission to the market of agricultural vehicles. Research methods - used methods of systematization and analysis of regulatory and legislative documents of the European Union on the admission to the market of agricultural and forestry vehicles. Research results. EU countries are taking a number of measures to increase the safety of cars at the legislative level. Such conditions are updated as the requirements for the development and manufacture of new models of agricultural and forestry vehicles, new technical and technological solutions of safety requirements are updated and the number of components, systems, technical units to which the requirements are established is expanded. For agricultural vehicles, the result was a new Regulation 167/2013 which applies to EU approval of agricultural and forestry tractors, their trailers and trailers, systems, components and individual technical units. In 2019, the EU countries submitted reports to the EU Commission on the operation of the regulation, which in turn must submit a report by 31.12.2022 with proposals for changes and updates of legislation, if necessary. Other agricultural machinery falls within the scope of Directive 2006/42 / EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on machinery, which also applies to mobile machinery and covers safety aspects of agricultural vehicles not covered by Regulation 167/2013. From 2019, the Machinery Directive is under revision. A draft regulation on mechanical engineering products was published in Brussels on 21.04.2021 (After the draft regulation of the European Commission was issued, discussions were held in parallel in the European Council and the European Parliament. Compromise amendments to the revision of the Machinery Directive 2006/42 / EU were voted and approved on 02.05.2022. The next step will be to start discussions and deliberations between the Commission, the Parliament and the Council of the EU to reach an agreement on the differences in mid-June 2022. Harmonization of road safety requirements for off-road mobile vehicles (NRMM) in the EU has been an important topic among politicians and other stakeholders for decades. A number of activities were carried out, in particular: A study commissioned by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium Business (EASME) in 2016 and published a report of the European Commission "EU study on harmonization of mobile traffic requirements" prepared by EASME consultant in 2019. In October 2021 A bilateral meeting was organized between the Industrial Working Group on Off-Road Mobile Technology (ITF NRMM) and representatives of the Commission of the Directorate General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and Small and Medium Business (DG GROW) to clarify some aspects of drafting proposals for establishment road requirements for NRMM. In the second quarter of 2022, the DG GROW Commission plans to prepare draft proposals for further discussion. Conclusions. EU countries are taking a number of measures to increase the safety of cars at the legislative level. This gives both producers and consumers of agricultural and forestry machinery a number of advantages: - no need for duplication / additional tests and / or documentation for placing machines on the market in several EU countries; - reduction of costs of manufacturers due to reduction of tests and terms of administration; - reduction of technical barriers to access to other EU markets with a small number of machines; - providing buyers with a wider range of goods to choose from; - reduction of supply chain costs, for example, in the absence of the need to add special kits for lighting and signaling, turning them into a burden for end users; - introduction of modern technical requirements in countries where this is not the case.
