HURON COUNTY
FEDERATION NEWS
(By J. 'Carl Hemingway)
No doubt many hog producers
have noticed the announcement of
the Federal Minister of Agricul-
ture stating that effective October
3, 1960, the $1.00 premium on
Grade B hogs will be discontinued,
$a3n.d00.that the premium on Grade A
will be increased fran $2.00 to
This follows a change in the
grading requirements of some
months ago which changed the
wcights and fat measurements, I
think that most producers now re-
alize that it hr' ''..^..-c more dif-
ficult to produce Gilitle A hogs
and therefore there has been a de-
crease in the returns to the pro-
d uchs•e. T
recent change in premium
pament will probably mean a fur-
ii.tr reduction in the returns for
likely to call; r llllllllllllll resent-
ment.producers and is therefore
m
I do not feel qualified to express
an opinion on wether or not the
Goverment is justified in its ac-
tion. but I do think we should
understand why this has been done.
First. I think that the producers
of most farm products will agree
that. the Government. is not :insti-
l:fed in encouraging the productiol.
of an inferior product by the pay-
ment of premiums. There was a
gced deal of complaint when the
Government maintained a floor
price for Grade B eggs. No doubt sthtic,onsg. same has been true for Grade
B hogs, though not nearly as
For many years there has been
little or no increase in the produc-
tion of Grade A hogs. United
States has been carrying on a
strorg program for the produc-
tion of a bacon type hog for some
time, and if we hope to continue
export, a small but very impor-
tant surplus of pork, we must
keep the quality high.
Secondly, the Government has
stated that its policy is to help the
family farmer. Records show that
the family farmer produces a
much higher percentage of top
quality hogs than the large com-
mercial feeder. By increasing the
premium on top quality which can
be exported at a premium price,
the Government is giving the fam-
ily farmer the opportunity to get
some return for his extra care in
breeding and feeding that is nec-
essary to produce Grade A hogs.
By doing this the family farmer
is not only helping himself but al-
so the whole industry:
Perhaps the grading of hogs is
more controversial than the pay-
ment of premiums. Prom time to
time I hear many complaints on
weights and grades. In the case
of dressed weight, unless you have
the live weight from a -public; gev-
errtrytent-inspected scales, your or-
ganization can do nothing to get
an adjustment. In the Case of
ggrraaddeer,s.it would be necessary for
the hog producers to employ cheek
