Marketing Board indicate that in the first quarter of 1974 there were 2X,331 sows marketed. This is 2,82 per cent of the total num, ber of hogs .marketed, Since the end of June, the figure was For the first time in recent Canadian history, the subject of agricultural economics\ is com- manding widespread attention from the press, consumers and legislators. Higher food costs are forcing the public, to give much more thought to their basic source of food, Canadian farmers are in the midst of a period of un- precedented high levels of farm cash receipts due, 'in Iarge part, to world food shortages, related high food demands, and an un- controlled rate of inflation. Costs of production, however, haVe also risen rapidly with the result that higher gross returns are being consumed more rapidly than increased produc- tion or higher prices can coun- ter balance. Thus, for in, dividual commodity producers the situation may vary con- siderably. It is now becoming in- creasingly clear to consumers, producers and politicians that farmers must receive adequate and stable incomes in order that a steady supply of reasonably priced, high quality food can be insured, Nowhere else is this need more apparent than amount Ontario's pork producers. Hogs are on the poorest end of the farming business today. The average market price of hogs in Toronto last week was $55.39 per hundredweight or roughly $90 per average hog. While this is an increase from the $40.00 per hundred weight mark of last May; tremendous feed price hikes and sagging pork demands .(consumption of pork in Canada is down 3% from last year) have taken away any substantial gains to the farmer, The Pork Producers Marketing Board, in co- operation with the University of Guelph has developed a for- mula for arriving at a cost-of- production figure for pork producers. This formula in- dicates that even with modest input prices, the farmer is losing money in hog produc- tion. , ^ 4pplying the formulae to the seciind quarter of 1974, and using the average feed costs of the first quarter, the production cost was $97.61 per hog for a 164 lb. average hog. The best price that hog producers have received this month has been $56 per hundred weight or a loss of around $7.00 per hog. With the $40.00 price of Last May, the farmer was losing about $19.00 per hog. At the same time, feed grain prices in Canada are at an all time high. A farmer survey by the Pork Marketing Board in- dicates that on June 15th of this year, a farmer was receiving $2.82 per bushel for his corn. On August 15, the figure had jumped to $3.60 per bushel. Last year, the price per bushel of corn was $2.29 on eptember 15th. Other feed osts have also increased. s oybeans from $6.14 per bushel n September ,1973 to $7.12 in eptember, 1974, and Barley rom $1.76 per bushel in Sep-,. ember, 1973 to $2.60 in Sep- ember, 1974. These figures would Seem to ye twofold results. On the e hand, many farmers are ciding that their feed grains e too expensive to feed rough their livestock for ses ,later on. On the other nd, a farmer who must buy a rge share of prepared feeds is sing increasingly more money hog production. The uation now seems to indicate at if hog prices do not rise to eel at least the cost of eduction, park producers will t out of the business. In fact, there are already in- ations that pork producers cutting back on their ceding stock.

In 1973, only 3 per tent of hogs marketed for the whole year were sews. The conclusion is that breeding sows are moving to market in abnormal numbers, In fact, for the last seven weeks, 4 per cent of the hogs have been sows or 2,000 per week, It is against this instability in the farming sector, that most provinces have made moves to encourage hog producers to stay in production during this crucial Period, In fact, it is only in. Ontario, Manitoba and Newfoundland that no sub- sidies are provided, In Manitoba, their. Provincial government subsidy has just expired, In the short term, some type of Provincial Government subsidy is required to encourage hog producers to stay in business during this slow period.
