Whether you are a producer or user, the new policy is designed to meet your needs by: • providing a fair and equitable base price for feed grains across Canada; • encouraging growth of grain and livestock production according to natural potential; • maintaining order and stability throughout the grain and livestock "sectors. MAIN FEATURES: • farmers will have direct access to feed grains in all parts of Canada; buyers are free to shop for the best bargain, sellers are free to find the beat price for their crops; • a nation-wide information system through the Canadian Livestock Feed Board will keep everyone informed on selling prices across the country; • the Canadian Wheat Board will continue to be the sole buyer and seller of feed grain for export market; • prairie producers have the choice of selling their grain to the CWB or to others on the domestic market; • cash advance payments and initial payments, similar to those provided to Prairie grain producers for many years, will be extended to growers across the country to encourage'feed grain production; • a new storage, program, costing the federal government $40 million . a year, will be institilted to provide .for security of supplies for Canadian markets; it will also lead to additional grain storage on the West Coast, in inland terminals, on the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence and in the Maritimes; • steps will be taken to bring into balance freight rates between meat and grain; this will progress according to trends in grain and livestock prices, and the degree of regional self-sufficiency in grain production. • MOM: EUGENE WHELAN, MINISTER CANADA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE HON.
