EM 2-6192 TF Owners of a half -section dairy farm near Edmonton, Alberta, that had been established by their forefathers in 1898, the brothers .... a ed a dii ie lt..decis- 9 Ci ti"f,"tlr-s QAC' IW" out of business. With a lot of planning and hard work, they rose to the challenge and today own one of the .most modern dairy barns in Western Canada. Making it pos- sible was assistance of the Farm C 'dit Corporation, whose Ed- monton staff pitched in with technical advice as well -a ar- ranging loans to finance the venture. Because the Croziers did much of the construction - work them- selves to cut Costs, they were able to /acquire the latest in dairy equipment to round out the efficiency of the 80 by 150 foot pole -type housing unit and milking parlor. They milk be- tween 65 and 72 grade Holstein cows. Agriculture Minister Alvin Hamilton visited the farm re- cently and expressed amazement at what had been accomplished. After seeing a number of the herd pass through the totally 'autonnatic *Wing parior(six+ teen cows standing in stalls ar- ranged in herring -bone pattern at One time), the Minister com- mented: "I've never seen any- thing so good." W. G. (George) O'Brien, Branch Manager for FCC, was also high in his praise for the Crozier dairy farm. His staff' desig.acd t1 .building l'ergiOrtVirt n g rran'ge ments., He regards it as an ex- ample of how the farm Credit Act can help forward -thinking farmers keep pace with the times in the face of costly ex- pansion. Land As Security Under the legislation, intro- duced in 1959, .competent farm- ers -using onlytheir arzn ..land as security, can borrow up to $20,000 at five Per cent interest and take up to 30 year to pay it back. Using land, livestock and equipment° as security, young farmers can borrow up to $27,500 and the same rate of interest and repayment terms apply. Prior to this Act, Mr. O'Brien explains, some farmers werein- clined t� pile -up bills and then seek credit. Or, • having built a new barn, they were unable to improve their herds after` making payments and paying taxes. The emphasis today is being placed on higher'produc- tion. • Probably the most important feature of FCC is the counselling service. -"We have a prelimin- ary discussion with a fanner to show him how he carr gget the best returns for his itnoney. Probably the next time we see him he's sitting at the kitchen table talking it over with his to WW R v f, ' y4,e4 „�� �'+1 i h t the farn%ez';.anit FCC ex- perts, working ix, pazltner hip," the results. 'are' alxnost always encouraging. In Alberta, says Mr. O'B_rien, less than five per cent of ;all applicants are out and out failures and rarely does the corporation lose its invest- ment.` Mr. O'Brien's farm field staff increased from two men Iast year to 20 this year. For farmers in the agricultur- al areas of Canada, he said, there is a Farm Credit Corpor- ation adviser within a 40 -mile drive.
