The Rural Voice, 1986-04, Page 58Right to Farm
Hearings begin
The Ontario Right to Farm Ad-
visory Committee is holding a
series of public hearings across the
province beginning in April.
"The purpose of the hearings is
to give producers, farm organiza-
tions and other interested parties
an opportunity to express their
views on the right to farm," said
advisory committee chairman
Donald Dunn.
The committee has been asked
to recommend options for ensur-
ing that farmers have adequate
protection from incompatible land
uses and complaints against nor-
mal farming practices. To make
recommendations, the committee
was asked to:
• examine the problems adversely
affecting farmers from carrying on
normal farm practices;
• evaluate current policies and
legislation such as the Planning
Act, the Environmental Protection
Act, the Occupier's Liability Act,
Abandoned Orchards Act, Weed
Control Act, and Hunter Damage
Compensation Act;
• determine the accuracy of the
proposed Foodland Preservation
Policy and the revised Code of
Practice for protecting farm opera-
tions from incompatible land uses
and complaints against normal
farm practices;
• review the role of the Ontario
Farm Pollution Advisory Com-
mittee in resolving complaints
against farm operations; and
• evaluate the effectiveness of
farmland and farm operation pro-
tection policies in other jurisdic-
tions.
The committee report is to be
completed and submitted to the
Minister of Agriculture and Food
by May 30, 1986. ❑
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY
FROM WORK AREA
A Targe number of farm injuries
happen to children under the age
of fifteen. While children can be
very helpful around any farm, they
lack maturity and the knowledge
of danger areas associated with
farming. Take time to explain safe-
ty precautions to teenagers. Young
children should be kept clear of all
work areas. Never allow children
on or around your equipment. Pre-
vent children from having injuries
on your farm.
