I base this prediction on the increase in feed costs. In the last fotir weeks feed grain prices increased by 21% and soyabean theal prices by no less than 61%, This can only mean lower beef and pork production. At today's livestock prices it is just as, or even more profitable to sell the grain than to feed it to livestock, at the Same tinie eliminating the risks connected with livestock production and the labour involved. * **** Today Agriculture Minister Gene Whelan announced increases ri the prices for industrial milk, but the increase is already eaten up by increased production cost before it comes into effect. With climbing feed costs there is no other way for dairy prices than to be tied to production cost. This has been urged for years by all farm organizations and if it is not done soon, we will have no dairy industry left. After that, the government will have to subsidize imported diary products, What has priority, subsidies to consumers through Canadian or through New Zealand farmers? S E.
