With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the information provided by the Government in its report, in which the Government refers to the provisions of the Act of 20 December 1990 on social insurance of farmers, as amended, as being the main text giving effect to the provisions of the Convention. The Committee understands that this Act applies to farmers who own their land as well as to their family members, and not to the agricultural wage earners covered by Article 1 of the Convention. It would therefore be grateful if the Government would indicate in its next report whether, as seems to be the case, wage earners in agricultural undertakings are covered by the general social insurance scheme as regards coverage of the risks of industrial accidents and occupational diseases. If there is a special scheme applicable to agricultural wage earners in the event of an industrial accident, the Government is requested to indicate what differences exist between the general scheme and that special scheme, especially as regards the manner in which the persons and undertakings covered are determined, the conditions under which benefits in cash and in kind are granted and the amount of such benefits.
