Farming is a depressed in-
dustry, an industry in which
even the 'most efficient farmers
cannot make acceptable returns
on their investments.
This was the major theme in
a brief presented Wednesday,
April 28, "to Prime Minister
William Davis and his cabinet,
by the Ontario Federp.tibn of
Agriculture.
"The result,"- OFA Presi-
dent 'Gordon Hill of Varna told
the • gOvernment ministers, "is
that the ,more educated farmers,
the farmers with greater skills,
leave farming for more reward-
ing opportunities. Unfortunately,
those left in farming are the
less able, the less well-trained
and, -certainly not in the best
interests of Ontario at large,
the less efficient foodproducers.
"Responsibility for the poor
returns in agriculture rests with
the Ontarib government," Mr.
Hill said. '"It has permitted
the relatively -disorganized
groups - farmers and pensioners
in particular - to sink into po-
verty."
Figures in the fariners' brief
showed that while incomes of
Ontario teachers increased 118
per cent between 1953 and 1968,
4id incomes of Qntario lawyers
increased 132 per cent over the
same period, income's of tax-
paying Ontario , farmers
creased 'jus't do per cent. ,
"-Econornicallyind socially,"
Mr. Hill said, "farmers are
falling behind Most groups in
Qntario society.
