Timbrell said he expected the commis- sioners to report to him within three to six months with a business- plan -to establish a heef marketing agency. • Further support to thie re meat` industry will come, he said, in the form of a series of grants and incentives to improve beef pro-- duction. ro- duction. About $62 million will be available over a five-year period to increase the pro- vince's calf production, improve production efficiency, expand feeding programs, im-• .prove fencing and provide technical assistance and support to producers. Timbrell said recent ministry studies of Ontario's red meat industry showed that a major cause of problems in the beef in- dustry is the 20 per cent per capita decline in consumption over the past six years. "The current beef cattle and sheep marketing system is full of inefficiency - too many middlemen between the producer and the packer, profiting at the expense of both;" he said. The industry "can no longier afford the luxury of the present marketing system." • • The' goveTruneni-lids-therefore iiisctied to establish producer marketing agencies for both beef cattle .and sheep. These agen- cies will operate'clearing house systems for all slaughter cattle and sheep marketed in Ontario," Timbrell said. • He pointed out that supply management °. s►. i�t�i�r�a�al°tO€t �g ./, T !e gover ant �,, tppo iT>rt r itiat"ives: - :To increase: the number of calves roduc- ed in.Ontalfio by, increasing the cow' one-third Over current Ietrels• Ontario presently draws 50 per cent of its calf ,sup, plies from Western • To help establish ag ;cultural oppprttnli&- ty centres to provide..technical assistance and explore other opporttiriities in areas where beef producers are suffering con- siderable difficulties, - To develop initiatives to assist in cattle feeding. - To help develop a northern development program. - To assist in building more fencing as cow herds and sheep flocks are expanded. - To create a beef cattle improvement pro- gram designed to increase production effi- ciency by 10 per cent. improve business management sup- - 'lo _ - To prepare a program to improve pro- ductivity in the meat processing industry.
