BRUNSDON Phone HU 2-9949 or Blyth 37r19 28-tfb RE: HOGS DEAR EDITOR; The Ontario Farmers' Union for three years has advocated Defic- iency Payments as a method of distributing price support funds. The president of Huron County Hog Producers' Association quer- ies the source of my authority to defend the deficiency payment principle, Resolutions asking for deficiency payments on all farm products first carried at lo- cal meetings and were sent on to County meetings. After approv- al at County level a resolution was placed before the annual con- vention where delegates from all OM locals had an opportunity for thorough discussion, The re- solution carried and accordingly became part of OFU policy, This is regular procedure in forming OPLI policy and is the source of my authority. Thus, approval is first given by the members in their home local, then on the county level and last, the provin- cial level. Mr. Love is well aware that delegates to the recent OHI?A meeting in Toronto were to re- turn home and condemn defic- iency payments. Mr. Mpinnis had the• resolution introduced and then spoke against it, leading del- egates to believe that •because de- ficiency payments were consider- ed a subsidy, the American mar- ket would be closed to our hogs, This is inaccurate, a deficiency payment is not a greater subsidy than a floor price. Under GATT commodities may not be exported at less than the support price. This is presently the case with our hogs which do not go to the US at less than the floor price of 25 cents. SO deter- mined was he that the resolution must not carry that arrangements had been made to have Mr. Gor- don Greer, Pres. OFA on hand to assist him (even though the OFA annual convention last November passed a resolution supporting de- ficiency payments.) Those delegates who supported the resolution were ridiculed from the platform and when the vote was called, "Charlies' mechanical toys" won out. Delegates were instructed to, and did hold meet- ings in their home district to ex- plain to producers why deficiency payments were not good for them. This is democracy in reverse! Mr. Love states we need no lon- ger fear Vertical Integration. He suggests that producers have seen where this practise will lead and have stopped contracting. An ar- ticle on the front page of a recent issue of the Rural Co-Operator credits deficiency payments as the factor causing feed companies to refrain from offering a type of contract where the company sup- plies hogs and •feed and the far- mer is paid a set amount for his work. I suggest this article is correct. This is one of the main reasons for Deficiency Payments, This the only way price support can be directed to the farmer and ex- cluded from the integrator. This is the only way we can, I. Keep feed mills and packing plants from cashing in on the meagre funds that have been set aside for Canadian farmers. 2. Keep the production of food out of con- trol of chain stores, packing and feed companies. 3. Maintain the family type farm. 4. Provide an adequate supply of high quality food at a price consumers can af- ford to pay. 5. Influence produc- tion according to market require- ments 5. Stop slight surpluses from completely demoralizing pro- ducers returns. 7. Reduce the need for trade barriers. 8. Bring returns to producers that bear a fair relation of production costs. With present grain supply out- look, and production methods, Canada will be in a surplus food position for some time. In times of surplus, produce prices rest on or near the floor. Our floor pri- ces (approved by CFA) have not been high enough to maintain a family type farm and in recent years we have witnessed a dram- atic exodus from the farm. Even so these floor prices have provided sufficient guarantee to integrators that -embarassing sur- pluses have been created and pur- chased by the Agricultural Prices Stabilization Board, Because of these surpins-s, the amounts of public funds involved and the realization in Government to De- partment of Agriculture circles that an "offer to purchase" type of price support is providing security to integrators than to farmers, a decision has been made to change the method of distribu- ting the price support fund. Canada's Agriculture program must include a price support mechanism that will provide far- mers with returns commensurate with production Costs, at least on our own market requirements. Those who advocate floor prices lend a hand to Vertical Integra- tion. Those who denounce Defic- iency Payments sabotage the fam- ily type farm.
