At the meeting council reviewed information and discussed various options. They also stated that prior to any proposal being finalized they wished to review the 2002 Wheels Away financial statements. The last financial statements seen by North Huron were from Dec. 31, 2001. At that time Wheels Away had a surplus of $67,163. The proposal from council was to continue to support Wheels Away by renewing the yearly agreement BIO Genetics prog. contributes S3.3 million to Ont. beef industry Researchers from the University of Guelph, the Department of Agriculture Business and Economics and the Department of Animal and Poultry Science recently completed a study which quantified the effects of genetic improvement on the beef cattle industry in Ontario. Results of the study indicate that for every dollar invested into genetic improvement programs in the province, there is a return of $3.30 per animal. Large-scale performance data collection programs began in Ontario with the introduction of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food’s (OMAF’s) Red Meat Plan in 1985. A beef cattle performance database was created to capture individual animal performance progress from a centralized bull evaluation program and a herd recording program formerly known as the Beef Improvement Program. based upon 30 cents per capita, plus $3 per ride for North Huron residents. They would also encourage municipalities to implement or continue the abovementioned system. A reserve fund would be established with contributions from the Community Reinvestment Fund to an amount which would purchase a new vehicle when necessary. A municipal staff person would be appointed as contact for the Wheels Away office manager and council encourages the board of directors to review and/or implement certain policies such as hiring and staff training. The existing agreement should be updated and council requests that With on-going support from OMAF, BIO was privatized in 1993 and has been delivering performance programs to Ontario beef producers since. The study included information from 1985 to 2001 for over 1.1 million animals evaluated for genetic traits including calving ease, birth weight, weaning gain, milk, post-weaning gain, yearling gain, back fat thickness, ribeye area, marbling and scrotal circumference. The results presented in the report relate directly to changes due to genetic improvement independent of progress made in the feeding and management of cattle in Ontario. Mathematical procedures were developed to evaluate the economic contribution of genetic improvement in the Ontario beef industry. The genetic changes for each trait were put together and applied to the typical commercial Ontario regular reports be presented through the municipal representative. After outlining the proposal council went in-camera to discuss a personnel matter, inviting all members of the Wheels Away board of directors to remain. Dianne Grummett, Wheels Away office manager and Joe Pickers, consultant left. After 20 minutes the public meeting resumed. The directors indicated that council would receive a copy of the statements as soon as possible. In a telephone interview Tuesday, Clerk-Administrator John Stewart said they thought they would be ready by Friday, however, he had not received them yet. Once they are another meeting will be held. production scenario. The result is the impact that genetic change had on the cost of producing calves from birth to market as well as the returns generated per calf. Researchers concluded that government support for genetic improvement programs have outweighed the cost of their investment and that for every million dollars invested in genetic improvement, at least $3.3 million dollars is returned to the industry. Dr. Jim Wilton, a member of the study’s research team, commented that: “There is considerable room to improve the rate of progress and with greater focus on economically important traits, the potential to increase the improvement rate is substantial.” The study’s final conclusion was that to keep the Ontario beef industry competitive, it is critical that genetic improvement continue.
