Under the loan program used in the past,
a farmer could borrow up to 75 per cent of

scheme introduced by . Mr. Henderson, a
farmer, can now receive only up to $10,000 a
-year with-a-maximuni outstanding loan of
$40,000 at any one time.
The brief, which called the new scheme
"inefficient", said now a farmer must
schedule his drainage program ,over four
. years, rather than completing the project
in one .year.

the brief said.
Jack Riddell told the audience that he
fails to underStand "why we have to haVe a
ceiling on farm drainage loans". and said he
will be bringing the matter, up with Mr.
Henderson in the future.
Frank Wall, a .member of OFA executive
from the Niagara Region, said he agrees
formulas for calculating tile, drainage loans
must be changed ' and said the federation
plans to take a strong stand on the issue. Mr.
Wall said, "farMers can't anymore afford to
grow crops on land that isn't drained*"
The Stephen Federation of Agriculture
also attacked the the drainage loan program
in their brief arid asked the government to
reconsider the program.
Mel Knox,:'-speaking oti behalf of the
Huron County milk committee, asked that
the federal government establish their' new

that producers can make the necessary

He said when pork production isn't on o
quota system like many other farm commod

them?" 4;
John Van Beers said the problem can't be
blamed entirely on young farmers getting
into pork production, saying the cost of -
production, not , the number (of producers)
that is getting us into trouble."
Frank Wall pointed out taxpayers com-
plain when subsidies are__ paid, to pork
producers due to over production, but they
also are critical of marketing board quotas
which implement a system of supply
management.
Mr. Wall said it is just a 'matter of time
until hog producers will have to have a
system of supply ,management.
