allowing them a three
percent subsidy for 'interest

Mug be 5Q percept or higher
to qualify.
This is a result of OFA
pressure on the governments
for assistance.
Gerry Fortune, first vice
president of the Huron
County Federation of
Agriculture, says about the
30 million dollar fund, "It's
going to help some people in
the short term. It gives a
breathing space. But what's
going to happen at the end of
December when the subsidy
is lifted?
"What we need is long
term'commitment from the
government which we
haven't received in the past.
We need help to solve the
problem of high imput costs
and low return for our
commodities."
The mechanics of the
program will be developed
next week by 'a joint com-
mittee composed of OFA
representatives, the
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food, the Ministry of
Treasury, and the banks,
David Turnbull.

Implants increase gain
and efficiency
Growth promoting ear
implants increase beef cattle
rate of gain about 10 percent,
increase feed efficiency and
reduce cost.
Tests show implanted
cattle will gain 25-35 lbs.
more on pasture than non
implanted cattle.
Synovex and Ralgro are
implants licensed for use in
Canada: Synovex S is•
available for steers from 600
to 1,000 pounds and Synovex
H for heifers weighing 400 to
800 pounds. Ralgro can be
used on suckling, growing
and finishing cattle.
Implants are not cleared
for use on breeding stock.
There is a withdrawal time
between implant and
slaughter of 65 to 70 days.
Yang -tattle can be re-
implanted 100 to 110 days

SUBSURFACE DRAINAGE BENEFITS
FACT No. 4.
IMPROVED QUALITY AND YIELD
Subsurface drainage allows you to plant your crop earlier,
thereby ensuring a longer growing season and harvesting
period. In fact, the number of days available for field work in
the wet season can more than double.
Well drained land also ensures even ripening for maximum
yield and no costly delays in harvest due to wet, muddy
conditions. With drainage you can get on your land earlier,
and stay on it later.
