Mrs. Ben Riley and ether close

. Farmers soon' won't have to
worry about how many pounds
per acre of fertilizer they should
apply - it will be kilograms per
hectare.
Fertilizer companies will begin
switching over to the metric
system this summer and fertilizer
application recommendations will
be given in metric, Ed Brulbaker
of the University of Guelph told
members of the Huron Federation
of Agriculture Thursday night.
Three of the major farm
machinery companies - Massey
Ferguson, John Deere and
International - are designing
almost entirely in metric now,
Mr. Brulbaker said.
"It is an emotional thing. None
of us like to change, put in many
ways we are going from a
complex . system , to a simple
payment is made. The report was
prepared by the Financial
Protection Task Force,
established by Mr. Newman in
1976 to make a systematic review
of the effects of such bank-
ruptcies.
The 'task .force recommends
.that all those who buy from
agricultural producers be licensed
and that prompt payment
system'', he. said.
Mr. Brulbaker said the easiest
way to learn the metric system
was to start to use it without
referring back to the old system.
"The best thing for us to do
would be to throw our Fahrgitheit
thermometers away," he said.
Bev. Brown questioned the
advantage of 'switching
temperature scales when the
variation of one degree Celsius
was less accurate and could. be
critical in a pig operation.
"The best thing would be to get
a thermometer measured in half
degrees:: Mr. Brulbaker told
her.
Farm deeds which are
presently based on the English
measurement system would not
have to be resurveyed, Mr.
Brulbaker said. But anything that
procedures be implemented for
all commodities. Where
,necessary, the task force
recommends a fund be

metric.
100 pound concentrate bags
will be changed to 40 kilogram
bags, which is about 88 pounds.

will consider this report very
carefully and give me their

their situations could be
improved,"

attention to those requiring

Agriculture AN Food Minister
William G. Newman has released
a report on financial protection for
agricultural producers in cases
where buyers go bankrupt before-----established • for individual
commodities under The Farm
Products Payment Act.
The report says that Ontario
.producers lose a total of, only
$135,000 a year as 'a result of
buyer bankruptcies. . "Of course, this is no comfort to
the individual who suffers and it
should 'be the aim of everyone
involved in agriculture to prevent
, even this loss," Mr. Newman
