Jackson & Jackson, Auctioneers Listowel CENSUS ASKS 400,00 FOR FARM FACTS Ottawa — Canada's farmers will have: two questionaires to fill in for the 1971 Census. In addition to the population and housing questionnaire, by which they and their families will be counted, they will alSo get a 1971 Cen8u8 of Agriculture form. Answers to this questionaire by an estimated 400,000 farmers will provide detailed information on the state. Of Canadian Agriculture, Everyone operating an agricul- tural holding of one acre ar more and having sold $50 or More of agricultural products in 1970 Will be required to fill in a Census of Agriculture form, This year's farm censits. which has some new questions as com- pared with previous censuses, will yield significant inforMation on changes in patterns Of agrictil- Ural produetion. Questionaires in the farin 'is will he dropped off at the farm- houses, along with the Population and housing questionaires, in the last week of May. In both cases, farmers will be asked to complete their own questionaires. The forms will be picked up by census representatives starting June 2. The farm qiiestiOnaire is, at first glance, a formidable,loOking 40gitMent It Rgks 100 qii.9stionK -- but in a way that it is easy for a fanner to skip questions that do not apply to him, and answer only those that apply to his particular operation, The qnestionaire has been carefully designed to make it as easy as possible for the farmer to fill it in• correctly. Two of the new questions in the 1971, farm census one on fertilizer use, the other on spray- ing and dusting — are designed to yield information on techno- logical , changes in agricultural Practices. Another new question asks about the type of farm ownership — whether private, partnership, institutional, or in- corporated., The most important information on changes in agriculture pro- duction patterns will come from answers to the basic ouestions: those on acreages land use, crops, livestock and poultry. Policy planners and. marketing agencies will be looking at the compli- ation8 deriVed from these answers for such infOrmation as: the extent of the shift out of wheat into other grains, and oher field crops the rate of increase in oil- seeds production, and the groWth in the importance of oilseeds as cash crops. — the extent of shifts from crops into livestock and as between kinds of livestock, and — how farms are continning to decrease in number and in- crease in average acreage. While' such treads can be estimated to reasonable degrees of accuracy by sample surveys between censuses, the Census of Agriculture is needed every five years to provide new benchmark information on Which to base Sue- teeding estimates, In addition, the Census is the only source of national cropland data and livestock and poultry inventories for any given small area in Canada. Such information is essential to studies oil Crop and livestock prodaction and markei- ifid, and in the studies on farms classified by size, type and econ- omic class. These studies, in turn, are basic to all policy planning and decis- ion Making in marketing pro- grams. They also provide infor- Mation for the use of farm organ- izations and the provincial exten- toia ill, t 401r prvg,rpo for the development of agricul- lure, as well as for use by farmers' themselves. A basic, trend in Canadian agri- culture, evident. since 1951, will undoubtedly be ,repeated in the 1971 Census results: a continuing decline in the number .of farms, combined with an increase in the average acreage per farm. In 19(16 the number of farms wa s 430,52C down 10.5 per cent from 480,903 in .1961. In the same period, the average farm size increased to 404 acres from 359, a. trend txuerienced by every province except Newfound. land. On a regional basis, the. Prairies had the largest increase, to an average of 635 acres from 617 in 1961; by contrast. the in- crease in the Central Region aver- aged only 10 acres — up to 161 from 151. Of greater importance than the size and number of census fartns is what is being done with them, This has been highlighted by wheat-Marketing problems' in recent years. shifts in world markets for other Canadian, agri- cultural precincts, and the Ways in which. Canadian farmers have adapted their production. to meet these changes. What the census tells on chang, es in land. use and production patterns since the 1966 census is therefore invaluable for planning, as it affects the future of Canad, ions in world markets, "When that naughty bey threw stones at you." the mother scold- ed her son, "why didn't you come and tell are. instead of throwing stones hack at him?" "What good would that do?" asked the boy. "You couldn't hit the side of a barn." HURON DEAD STOCK REMOVAL Clinton Cue to the decrease In meat prices we are unable to pay for any farm, stock.
