BRUCEFIELD, ONT.
14,
The number of farmers is
continually decreasing. In this
case we realize that it is, very
largely the small operator who
fails to make ends meet.
I was doing a little work on
statistics on profits in the
handling or processing business.
Every so often we see reports
that might lead us to believe
that these industries are even
tougher than farming.
I worked from the 1962
DBS report and on the sur-
face many businesses. would
seem to be highly risky but
the statistics tell only part of
the story.
In the livestock processing
business — statistics show that
177 companies had a profit; 74
companies had a loss. In other
words, almost 42 percent of the
livestock processing companies
were losing money.
Does this prove what the
packers have been telling the
farmers so emphatically — that
there is no money in the pro-
cessing industry — that it is
a risky business?
On the surface, from the
DES' figures, it would seem to
be true.
However when we take these
DES figures and do a little
work with them the picture is
quite different.
The 177 processors that had
a profit processed 97 percent
of the livestock. There was
a loss on only three percent
of product,
Further, the average sales
per year for those . with a loss
averaged only $400,000 while
the average of those marketing
a profit averaged $6.7 million.
Also the average profit was
1.1 percent of sales,
Again this profit of 1,1 per-
cent seems quite Small but
when we realize that the turn-
over is from 14 to 20 -tithes a
year the interest per year on
this working capital becomes
14 percent to 20 percent, Rath-
er a handsome profit picture,
Milk producers are having
very siirdlat difficulties as
those of the livestock producers
and we 'hear very similar tales
Of woe from the processors.
However, 412 milk processing
companies had a 3.3 percent
profit on sales and handled 90

This move is designed to give unit members the
widest possible choice of sires. The combined bull studs
of the two organizations will include:
4111 48 HOLSTEINS — 21 with daughters proven
above average for type or production.
33 HEREFORDS — 23 performance tested — 3
progeny tested,
• 9 JERSEYS — 3 with daughters proven above
average for type or production.
• 12 SHORTHORNS — 5 performance tested.
• 3 BROWN SWISS — All from the famous Lee's
Hill herd.
O 6 CHAROLAIS — 3 progeny tested, one a Cer-
tified Meat Sire.
10 ANGUS • 2 RED POLLS
• 2 MILKING SHORTHORNS
lh addition they will obtain, through other breeding
organizations the services of:
11 AYRSHIRES — 5 with daughters proven

percent of the product. One
hundred and fifty-five compan-
ies had a 1.1 loss on 10 per-
cent of the product as calcu-
lated on sales. Many milk pro-
ducts do not move as quickly
as meats so that the yearly
profit is a little under that of
the meat processor, but it is
still quite attractive,
If we turn to the feed mills
we find 185 doing 95 percent
of the busniess at an average
profit of 3.5 percent while 61
mills doing 5 percent of the
business had a loss of 1.6 per-
cent.
From all these figures I'm
sure you will see that DBS
doesn't give all the informat-
ion. It is also quite apparent
that it is generally the small
operators that are not able to
make ends meet.
On the other hand the pro-
cessing industry is highly prof-
