Milk -Board reducesquotaclause gives reason as .poor weather Adverse weather conditions across the Province this spring and summer, resulting in • poor cattle feed crops, has led the On- tario Milk Marketing Board to re- duce its quota maintenance clause, as it applied to Group 1 Pool milk producers, from 90 to 80 per cent for a seven-month' period, October 1, 1972 to April 30, 1973. Dairy farmers who supply raw .milk to the fluid market .are *mom in' Nle ' dairy industry in #fi,s n : w .y pa 0 #1,40 ;Pool produc- ers. Producers holding quotas are obligated to fill a specific part of 'them by supplying milk to the Board in regular amounts and at regular intervals to assure that under normal circumstances market requirements are met. The Board's policy states that when a producer's daily average production for each of two ,con- secutive months is below 90 per cent of his allotted Group 1 Pool quota, his quota is reduced by the amount that his daily .average production is below 90 per cent of his Group 1 Pool quota. In mak- ing its decision to lower the main- tenance clause from 90 to 80 .per cent, the Board took into consi- deration ion thatthe e Provin ce has received an abnormal amount of rainfall this,summer, particular- ly during haying, and harvesting and that the hay crop hi general was of very poor quality. This situation means that many pro- ducers will be forced to purchase feed grains at prices which have risen sharply and suddenly. In August of this year, the Board waived the maintenance clause for producers in the Coun- ties of Carleton, Dundas, Glen- garry, Grenville, Prescott, Rus- sell and Stormont, from August 1, 1972 to June 1, 1973. These Coun- ties experienced catastrophic Vveather conditions. "The Board, however, realizes that although adverse weather is causing many hardships for pro- ducers, the conditions in other Counties throughout the Province canno a considered as.. astro- y t Llae these circ "'sti;es, te`''Eoat ' dee-iided th" -> a�z7ebm- plete waiver of the quota penalty would not be a realistic solution to this problem. As a result, the Board therefore reduced the maintenance clause to 80 per cent.
