previided. Afters. all, the proportion of
Drits 4o's budget set aside for agriculture is
the lowest of., any agricultural province in
Canada, , and the fanners know. it,”
comments Swart in the report.
The reality is that, in two areas, farmers
are facing crisis situations, according to the
report. Red meat producers, ma class, are
in: deep trouble. Secondly, credit. 'costs,
particularly for those who are .carrying
mortgages or loans incurred ' at the high
interest rates of the 1981 and 1982 periods,
are forcing growing numbers of farmers into,
insolvency.
With only two exceptions, the task force
was confronted at all of their meetings with
disillusioned and angry beef and hog
producers who were about to go over the
brink, says Swart. Harsh treatment of farm
creditors is inexcusable at a time when net
farm income is at a record low and bank
profits are at a record high, about 51.85
billion for 1983.
The report also addressed eight categories
of concern which were described as longer
• term problems. They included farm income
security, farm credit need, input costs, tile
drainage, municipal' drainage projects, loss
of foodlands, cutbacks in local OMAF offices
and the spread between farm' and .consumer
prices.
The report suggests an all party legislative
committee deal with the medium and long
term agricultural problems in the province.
The committee should be composed of those
involved in agricultural portfolios from all
parties supplementedby otheir .members
who are experienced and knowledgeable in
farm matters.
The NDP task force issued their interim
report in December because they •see a need
for immediate measures and a full report
including recommendations wilt be present-
ed to the all party committee in January.
The . mood reflected. in each of the seven
area meetings held by , the NDP task force
was one of quiet, often impassioned, desprer-
ation, writes Swart in the report. More' and
more fanners are unable to survive on their
income from the farm and must either
supplement it froth outside or liquidate their
centre..
