A program whereby hogs can be
directed to the best market in ac
cordance with demand has became a
necessity in Ontario and will be in
stituted in mid-September, according
to Chas. McInnis, President of the
Ontario Hog Producers. This program
is designed to strengthen the produc
ers’ bargaining position and has been
necessitated by the large percentage
of the hogs which were being deliver
ed direct to packing plants. These dir
ect deliveries were largely in response
to extra payments made to truckers
by packers to encourage delivery of
hogs to their particular plants.
In preparation for the direction
program, the Hog Producers have
licensed truckers who handle hogs,
their Co-operative selling agency has
been planning the establishment of
new assembly yards to which hogs
will be brought and from which they
will be directed to the points where
they are in greatest demand. Yards
will be’ established at Windsor, Lon
don, Stratford, Barrie and Peterbor
ough, in addition to the facilities
established last year at Kitchener and
the Public Stockyards at Toronto.
Under the new direction program,
hogs picked up at the farm by a
trucker will (be taken to the nearest
assembly yard. There, the trucker will
be told to deliver them to the plant
to which they have been sold, or pos
sibly the animals may be unloaded.

J the weighing of the live hogs. From
i these records, the marketing agency
- can check on the dressing percentages
i of hogs and gather very valuable data
! which can be used to the benefit of
■ the producer. Commenting on the
• direction program, Mr. McInnis said
i the continued large percentage of
> hogs delivered direct to packing
' plants had made it impossible for
the marketing agency to bargain ef
fectively. How can you bargain when
‘ your buyer already has the product
killed and processed in his plant, he
asks. The new plan will overcome this
problem since the hogs will go to
the plant only after agreement has
been reached on price.
The direction program will also
eliminate the special payments to
truckers by the packers. These pay
ments had been made by the packers
to ensure their receiving the share
of hogs they needed to meet their re
quirements. However, this will be un
necessary now, since the only way the
packer can be sure of sufficient hogs
will be to bid competitively for them
from the Ontario Hog Producers Co
operative, which
ity^f selling all
for slaughter.
Elimination of
truckers should
higher prices to the producer. Reports
have placed them as high as $3.00
per hog in some cases. This meant
the packer paid that amount over
and above the market price, but the
producer received little if any of that
sum. Mr. McInnis adds that the Hog
Producers have no intention of
squeezing the truckers. They provide
a necessary service and should receive
fair payment. However, he feels the
trucker is hired by the farmer, and
payment for his service should only
come from the farmer, who in turn
should receive the full price paid for
the hogs by the packer or butcher
who buys them.
