C;heckott
for corn
Beginning September 17,
Ontario corn producers will
be paying a compulsory
refundable fee for each tonne
of grain corn they sell to the
commercial market.
The check -off, established
through the introduction of
the Grain Corn Marketing Act
last spring, was set up to
finance the new Ontario Corn
Producers' Association.
The plan calls for producers
to pay 20 cents per tonne of
grain corn with moisture con-
tents of 15.5 percent or less.
The fee decreases a quarter
cent per tonne for each
percentage point above 15.5
percent.
The fee is automatically
deducted by the buyer and
forwarded to the corn pro-
ducers' association, but pro-
ducers may apply for a re-
fund once each quarter. Sales
of grain corn from one pro-
ducer to another producer
who is not a grain dealer are
exempt from the check -off as
are sales of sweet corn, pop-
ping corn and seed corn.
The Ministry of Agriculture
and Food provided a $60,000
grant to the Ontario Corn Pro-
ducers' Association earlier
this year. The check -off will
allow the organization to
become self-sustaining with a
regular income from corn
producers.
