The Brussels Post, 1976-07-14, Page 12Agriculture and Food Minister
William G. Newman has
announced the details of the 1976
beef calf income stabilization
program. Speaking in the Legisla-
ture, Mr. Newman said the
premiums for this year would be
$5. per cow and the support price
would be 50 cents per pound, the
same as last year. Enrolment
closes this year on. August 16.
Only cows in the producer's
possession as of June 22 may be
registered. All contracts will
expire in June 1980.
The support price is calculated
on 100 per cent of the producer's
operating cost. All beef calf
producers and cream shippers in
Ontario are eligible. Producers
who participated last year will'
receive enrolment forms in the
mail. —New participants will be
able to get forms from their
Agricultural Representatives -
after July 12.
Mr. Newman said that
"although the price being
supported is that for calves, the
payments are made on a per cow
basis.
"The Payment is based on four
factors," he said, "the support
price for calves, which is 50 cents

"a pound this year; the weighted
average market price for calves,
which will be calculated from fall
sales; the average number of
calves from 100 cows, which when
calculated for the whole province
is 85; and the average weight of
the calves in the fall, which is 450
pounds each."
This program was initiated in
1975 to stabilize the income of
beef calf producers and to •
encourage a continuing supply of
Ontario-produced beef. Last year
12,000 farmers registered 300,000
cows and received net, payments
of $72. per cow, for total
payments of $22.5 million.
