Miss' 'Oldrteld told those present at the banquet she' had enjoyed her year as dairy princess, and amongst her other activities had visited 19 schools in Al gays in Huron County, - Upsurge in foreign ownership There has beerra-utiorge in foreign absentee owner- ship of farmland in Huron and south Bruce counties during the last six years. A study done at the request of the Huron County Federa- tion of Agriculture by the University of Guelph's rural outreach program shows for- eign absentee ownership of farmland increased to 10,000 acres in 1989 from 5,300 acres in 1975. The study is of Huron County-and-tine Bruce County- - townships of Huron, Kinloss. Carrick and Cuirass. Foreign ownership in the study area spurted even fur- ther in the last year, accord- ing to Tony Fuller co-ordina- tor of the U of G rural outreach program. He says it's too early to draw can-elusions from the growing trend, but "We're looking very closely at Huron township in, south Bruce County north of Ashfield" where three foreign owners have acquired 7,000 acres in the last year. Mr. Fuller-says EUropeans may be acquiring farmland in this area for several reasons, which include speculation. bargain priees in comparison to Europe and fear of political unrest abroad. A seven-person survey group. headed by Julius • Mage of the U of G. updates its findings about every six months. $119•°° Jack's Jottings (Continued from last week) The quota system un- doubtedly- places some se- vere restrictions on the in • - dividual farmers, but it also confers • some distinct ad- vantages. Farmers in these commodities have , the as- ' surance of a,reasonable return. •Today, with high interest costs, ,owning a— quota often makes the dif- ference when applying for a loan. Because of these advan- tages, 'quotas have gained a monetary value. This does place some restrictions on entrance to the field, but.' again, it is compensated for by the advantages. Farmers in supply management sys- tems are riot subjected to the boom and bust _cycle pre- valent in other commodities. SUPPLY MANAGEMENT Supply management has waked well bat it is doubtful that we shall see it' applied to many other commodities. Farmers themselves are re- luctant to enter into supply management programs. Supply management was only introduced when com- modities in question 'were in a period of extreme over- supply when producers are being forced out of bosiness. The other limiting factor is that the various commodities do not lend themselves to production control. Marketing boar& have brought to farming a capacity to-triarket and plan. It is vital to the health of the agricul- tural industry in Ontario. They have brought a greater degree of stability and pre- dictability which has helped to stop the exodus from farms. Marketing Boards have not cured the traditional problems facing agriculture, but they have gone a long way towards moderating them. The GoVernment of Ontario's decision to support marketing boards has been a wise one indeed and I hope that the consuming public would not become unduly influenced' by reports which they read or hear condem- ning marketing boards as being a monopoly and forc- ing consumers to pay unrea- sonable prices for the food. .
