(:RANI) RENT) 519-238-5878 ACCOUNTING BOB DIETRICN INCOME TAX SERVICE 236-4989 12 MARY ST., ZURICH 1 HCFA lauds province's RMP commitment For the Lakeshore Advance This week's Provincial Budget delivered commitment for a cost - shared insurance program for sectors of the local farm economy. The new program will be available to produc- ers of Ontario's non -supply managed commodities, which include beef, pork, veal, lamb, fruits, vegetables and grains and oilseeds. "1 want to thank Minister Mitchell for all her work in having a Risk Manage- ment Program established" said Mari- nes Bakker, President of the Iluron County Federation of Agriculture, when hearing of its announcement in the budget. "I'm sure our local farmers look forward to their commodity lead- ers to continue to work on the final details of the program design, to ensure the most effective use of government and farmers dollars" he added. Based largely on the successful model implemented by the Gov- ernment of Ontario for the Grains and Oilseeds industry, the program proposed by farm- ers would offset the difference between the current market price and the average long-term cost of production for local Ontario farmers. Designed as a three -wary part- nership, on a voluntary basis Ontario farmers would pay pre- miums representing 30 per cent of the long-term cost of the insurance program with the fed- eral and provincial governments contributing the remainder in accordance with the traditional 60/40 (federal/provincial) split. Wayne Black, a I luron farmer who is a Board Director for the Ontario Federation of Agricul- ture was, "glad to see the budget implementing a permanent Risk Management Program for the Grains & Oilseeds and extending that programming to pork, beef, sheep, veal and the edible horticulture sector." "'Ihe next step is to get the federal government to come to the table and sur .port farmers with transfer pay- ments that would fund their percent- age of the program" says Joe Vermmnt the OFA Board Director for I !mon- Perth. "As important as the Budget announcement is, final program details need to be worked out to make sure it is implemented in a way that meets the farmer's needs:' The call to secure sustainable, bankable and predictable risk management programming is a project of a number of Provincial Farm organizations and their County counterparts. The Ontario Agriculture Sustainability Coalition (OASC) members are the Ontario Cattle- men's Association, the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers' Association, Ontario Veal, Ontario Grains & Oilseeds Ontario Pork and Ontario Sheep Marketing Agency, together with the Christian Farmers' Federa- tion of Ontario and the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. OASC leaders praised the provincial government for deliv- ering this much-needed tool to Ontario farmers, but also renewed their call for the federal government to join in the program.
