Farm input costs are up by.20.2 percent while food costs are up by 18 percent. Statistics Canada, So anyone who thinks that the farmer is getting rich off the poor, consumer will do good to look at those figures. "Canadian society is exploited by land . speculators. Price of building lots is out of sight because of the greed of people with capital, who jack up the prices. Farm organizations must do all.in their power to defend the land." Bruce McCall, manager of the Brussels stockyards, Beef is a great family food value, And that value's real yardstick is cost per serving,not cost per pound. It's surprising to learn, for example, that one pound of ground beef for stew yields two or three times as many servings as short ribs, From the US National Beef Industry Council, The money spent by farmers pumps billions of dollars into the economy each year. Farmers make up only 5 percent of the population but they create nearly 20 percent of the market for basic industries. When farm equipment labourers, for example, win a pay increase, that additional cost is felt back at the farm. Each year a large group of farm boys and girls graduates from rural high schools and moves on to provide educated, well motivated workers for in- dustry and business. It cost the farm community economy more than $20,000 to feed, clothe and educate each high school graduate. That investment becomes a contribution to urban productivity. Five percent of North America's population feeds the other 95 percent, plus a good deal of other country's population. It's unrivalled anywhere in the world. There is some evidence that nonfarm people are beginning to recognize this. All we expect now is that people are willing to pay us accordingly. Notice Is Hereby Given That the Researcher. Mr. Lynch noted that bean yields were affected by six factors, some easily con- trolled by man and others much more difficult or impossible to control, Ozone damage was one factor in 1973 that contributed to lower yields, Ozone injury results from certain atmospheric conditions that individual growers have little or no control over. . Insect damage is a cyclical problem and difficult to control because insecticides' kill the beneficial insects as well as the harmful bugs and also no in- secticide can promise 100 percent control as some insects are on the underside of leaves and con- sequently survive any insecticide treatment. * Soil structure, herbicide damage and root rot are problems that can be overcome by proper cultural practices, rotations and the careful reading of the herbicide labels before applying the chemical. Both Mr. Lynch and Mr. Shaw stressed the fact that programmed weed control was essential for good bean yields. Know your weed problem and use the correct chemical or com- bination of chemicals that will provide control of the weed spectrum on your farm was the message Through the use of good cultural' practices' and proper herbicide application the average yield of white beans will easily rise and ultimately the entire Canadian economy will benefit. 99TH ANNUAL MEETING 'OF THE white bean produCtion is ex- ported to the United Kingdom. Present , economic conditions 'in the U.K. where an average wage is approximately eighty dollars per week demand the substitution of highly priced meat products by nutritious, high protein foods such as white beans. One note of warning emerged however, due to the entry of Great Britain into the European Economic Community prohibitive tariffs may be placed on white bean imports if the growers in the EEC countries can produce their own whitebeans. At this time, however, weather and disease problems prohibit the production of dry beans in any EEC country. • In summary Dr. MacGregor was very optimistic for the , Canadian white bean producer, noting that the Canadian grower consistently outproduced on a per acre basis his American neigh- bour and benefitted from an orderly marketing system for his white bean crop. A number of cultural practice topics were discussed by Pat . Lynch, OMAF Stratford and Jim Shaw, Elanco Agricultural Dr. Murray MacGregor, speaking at the 1974 Whitebean Outlook Meeting in Hensall, Tuesday sponsored by Elanco Products 'delivered a very op- timistic prediction for Canadian Whitebean growers. The all-time record prices being received for white beans this year may not be a one. year event, Export demand and prices look very strong for many years in the future.
