Van Beers was presenting a brief on agriculture and food strategy at a Members of Parliament meeting in Clinton sponsored by the Huron Federation. In making that statement Van Beers said federal and provincial governments must promote more under- standing and co-operation between its Ministries He continued, "Opposition critics in consumer, labour and agriculture ministries should be made aware that having a consumer critic, criticize marketing boards and argue for imported food while agriculture critics demand more security and protection for farmers only leads to confusion." Van Beers added,"We would like to see a clearly stated strategy for the farming and food processing industries in Ontario. Such strategy must in- clude a statement on ob- jectives and programs for their achievement. Such programs must also have meaningful govern- ment support in order to be successful, and to be of benefit to the industry. The government of Ontario must make a 'firm com- mitment to make the far- ming and Food Processing Industries in Ontario self- sufficient in supply, of Ontario resources, in regard to food which carr' be produced in Ontario. In order to provide jobs and opportunity in this Industry, and to utilize it more fully, it must also help develop export markets. Increase availability of long, medium, and short term financing at reasonable rates are necessary, to both the farming and Food Processing Industries. For farming increased capital grants for moder- nization of buildings, equipment, erosion control, pollution abatement, and energy production, are needed. Tile drainage which has demonstrated to be most dramatic in improving crop production and reducing fuel consumption, should have more funding available. The Food Processing Industries require support in modernization of existing plants and in the establish- ment of new plants.

T -A photo program should consider positive support for in- dividual processors which useOntariofarm produce as their components.
