Ontario red meat payment announced
TORONTO - Hard-pressed red pleat pro-
ducers in Ontario will receive a provincial
stabilization payment which could reach
almost $31-uullion.
The payment to hog, slaughter cattle and
lamb producers is part of a transitional
agreement leading to the establishrnent of a
national tripartite stabilization plan on
.January 1, .1986. The Ontario cabinet has
authorized Agriculture and Food Minister
Jack Riddell to sign the tripartite agree-
ment. Signing details are being corked out.
Since the tripartite plan doesn t come into
effect tuitil .January 1, the Ontario govern-
ment is honoring its conunitment to pro-
ducers to provide retroactive tripartite-
level
ripartitelevel payirients for 1985.
The federal government has agreed to
provide about $2 -mullion over and above
the provincial payment through its existing
stabilization plan. Exact amounts will only
be known after the end of 1985.
••Farm prices in the red meat sector have
been very depressed and farmers need this
type of help," Riddell said. "My govern-
ment recognizes the crisis in countryside
and is again providing the necessary
assistance,"
Riddell said farrow -to -finish hog pro-
ducers will receive provincial payments of
$7.38 per hog for the second quarter and
$8.20 per" hog for the third, quarter. In con-
sultation with the pork producers, a split in
the payment has been agreed on between
sow-weaner and finishing production
segments for 1985. There will also be a
federal payment.
There will also be a second and third
quarter payniellt fur slaughter cattle. It will
be based un either a per pound or a per
animal calculation. Negotiations are conti-
nuing to determine the type of payments.
Officials of both governments are meeting
toi work on administrative details and to
determine if a single cheque will be issued
,cn• whether there will be separate cheques'
from each government.
Producer contributions will not be re-
quired for either hog or slaughter cattle
payouts. An amount equivalent to the
calculated long -terra producer premium
has been deducted from the pa) out the
farmer will receive.
The Ontario Farm Intone Stabilization
Conunission will mail application forms do
hog producers early in December t+ith the
first payment to producers expected before
the end of the year.

also covers the fourth quarter. At the c'rid of
the quarter, an announcement will be made
if calculations show a payout is warranted.

Chartered Accountants reported that a divi-
dend of seven percent was paid on share ac-
counts this year and $2,714,222.00 was paid'
back to members as dividends and interest.
Mr. Schnaar stated that Clinton Community
('Medi+ Union would have paid a 10 nercent
dividend but because of new regulations ou -
ing to problems, especially the two recent
bank failures, more funds have to be set
aside as reserves. Two bankruptcies did ni
.help Clinton Community Credit Union and
these were not caused because'uf high cost
land purchases when interest rates were
high. Over 1900 loans for a dollar value of
$12,955,879. were processed, with first inor-•
tgage loans on real estate increasing the
most. The loan department is finding that
more restrictions and security on their loans
is required. The day of the hand shake to
bind an agreernent is gone. -
Membrs learned that the number of new
account •arid.' assets had increased
dramatically during the past three months
to total over 9,000 members and $35,000,000.
