Eligibility requirements
MORE PORK PRODUCERS WILL BE
ABLE TO CAPITALIZE ON 0.P.I.I.P.
The eligibility requirements for the On-
tario Pork Industry Improvement Plan
have been changed to allow the smaller
farrow -to -finish pork producer to take ad-
vantage of the program. A producer must
have 20 sow equivalents with one sow
equivalent equal to one sow or 15 market
hogs marketed annually.
The following combinations are eligible:
(a) 20 sows; (b) 15 sows and at least 75
market hogs; (c) 10 sows and at least 150
market hogs; (c) 5 sows and 225 market
hogs; (e) 300 market hogs or any other
cominbation that meets the 20 sow
equivalents or more.
These producers who are now eligible
are able to collect the yearly grants from
1987 onward to the end of the program. You
may collect the Ventilation Grant, the Pro-
ductivity and Quality Improvement Grant
and the Rodent Control Grant from April 1,
1986.
Pocket Record Booklets
I would like to thank those who have sub-
mitted their production records for the se-
cond quarter of 1987. I would like to remind
anyone who hasn't submitted their
records, to do so as soon as possible to
maintain their eligibility in the Ontario
Pork Industry Improvement Plan.
Some concern has been expressed over
what is required for production records for
this program. The production records re-
quired are very straightforward and can
be completed if a producer keeps a
minimum set of records. The production
record form is divided into the following
sections: sales, purchases, production
figures, death losses and monthly
inventory.
To ease information collecting, a
pocket -sized booklet, especially designed
to correspond to the O.P.I.I.P. production
records has been developed. The booklet is
divided into different categories as seen on
the production record sheet and can be us-
ed to collect three months of information.
If you think this booklet would be useful,
please contact your local office for a copy.
If you have questions dealing with the
new eligibility requirements, record keep-
ing booklet, or anything else for the
O.P.I.I.P., please contact me at 881-3301 or
1-800-265-3023.

Winter Wheat Insurance 1987-1988.
The Ontario Crop Insurance Program
for Winter Wheat planted this fall is now
available. Winter Wheat Insurance allows
you to protect your crop against natural
hazards such as winter -kill, floods,
droughts, frost, insects and disease. In ad -
FARM REPO_ ' T
dition, crop insurance offers you a
guarantee of quality and a production
guarantee based on your "average farm
yield".
The "average farm yield" is tailored to
fit the individual farmer's production
capabilities. The "average farm yield"
begins with the area average yield in the
first year and in following years, the ac-
tual farm yield is calculated into the
average until, after five years, when your
average farm yield is based solely on your
own production records.
Crop Insurance guarantees you a
percentage of your "average farm yield."
The first year with crop insurance
guarantees you 75 percent of your average
farm yield. The guarantee percentage of
your "average farm yield" will vary for
each successive year depending oh your
claim in the previous year. Your coverage
can increase to 80 percent, but will never
be less than 70 percent of your "average
farm yield". If your actual production falls
below your production guarantee, you can
claim for the difference.
The farmer has three price options to
choose from.
The ,Government of Canada provides
financial assistance to the Canada -Ontario
Crop Insurance Program by contributing
50 percent of the total premiums. This
enables producers to purchase insurance'
protection at a price they can afford.

tact your local Crop Insurance'Agent. The
