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.. • The Lucy swim team held. its. frst swim **giga MildmayIteam and came away with 265.5 pointswih` the meet. • r .The Lucknow Mites were runnersu the �, P In WOAA playoff tournament held in Mitchell August 27 -. 28.
