Interest rates
hurt
family farms
LISTOWEL - High interest
rates are eroding family
farm ownership, according
to Elbert van Donkersgoed
of Drayton.
Mr. van Donkersgoed says
many family farmers are
losing equity in their
businesses.
"I've just spent a day
chairing a meeting of a farm
family and Their four major
creditors," he said. "It was a
classic case of a farm almost
free of debt a few years ago
but now being eaten up by
high interest rates."
The. meeting won time
until April 1, 1981 to find
refinancing," he noted but
added, "If this family cannot
refinance at significantly
lower interest rates that
farm is almost certainly
doomed."
Farm bankruptcies have
more -than doubled this year
over last in Ontario, ac-
cording to the federal.

and Corporate Affairs_
Mr. van Donkersgoed is
research and policy director
with the Christian Farmers'
Federation of Ontario and is
the chairman of the Coalition
