Let's look at production. . If
We keep a cow, raise a calf,
pasture the yearling and fat-
ten the two yeRr old, we would
need at least 20 acres per cow.
This would mean 125,000 finish-
ed cattle per year, or 25 per
family. When losses and oper-
ating expenses are deducted,
the balance won't be too at-
'tractive, On the other hand, if
these Italian businessmen have
the deal properly figured - out
and it is: a profitable venture,
why hasn't the Canadian meat
trade discovered the Italian
market and supplied it? On-
tario and Canadian farmers
may be no better f 'arm e r s
than those of Italy, but surely
with our knowledge of our land
and climate, our greater exper-
ience in livestock farming, we
could produce beef more reffic-
lently than groups of ,strangers
coming into a new land.
Is this just lanother example
of the Ontario farmer being so
wrapped up in production ef.:
ficiency that he has failed - to
take advantage of a market
that would make his farm op-
eration profitable.
What is the situation? Do
"far-away-fields look green" to
the Italians, or the Ontario
farmers "too close to the trees
to see the forest"?
