( photo by Anne Narejko) Egg prices up two cents Egg producers will be paid two cents a dozen more for Grade A large this Monday as the Canadian Egg Marketing Agency (CEMA) returns to its regular pricing policy suspended during a price freeze for it most of September and October. The two -cent increase announced by the agency today is the second of two steps to recover a four -cent difference between ac- tual prices and those dictated by the agency's pricing formula. The first two cents were recovered October 31. CEMA chose to gradually return to for- mula pricing, rather than increase the price by four cents in one jump, to ease the impact on consumers. Egg prices were frozen September 12, by the 'federal cabinet under its 6 -and -5 restraint program. The agency was told to rollback two cents of a four -cent increase in September while a subsequent two -cent hike set for October was also blocked. But after reviewing its position, the cabinet, deeided it eotild not unilaterally im- pose the restraint guidelines on egg prices because of an 11 -year-old agreement with the provinces governing egg marketing in Canada. This agreement says egg prices for Grade A large will be set according to a cost of pro- duction formula monitored by the federal government's National Farm Products Marketing Council. Egg prices began to rise this summer to keep pace with soaring feed costs. A wither- ing drought in the U.S. grain belt, combined with the deleterious effects of Washington's payment -in-kind program to reduce grain stores, pushed feed prices up in the world markets. Normally, increased costs are recovered by egg producers with carefully regulated increases in egg prices. Likewise, if costs drop, so do prices. CEMA sets the farmgate price of eggs on- ly. Prices actually paid by consumers are determined by wholesalers and retailers. OFA wants tmc reform study The Ontario Federation of Agriculture ( OFA) has called for provincial government commitment to a continued study of proper- ty tax reform; in response to the announce- ment of a revised farm tax reduction pro- gram. In the interim, the OFA has accepted the new program which will rebate 60 percent of property taxes to eligible farmers. In addi- tion, the new program will offer broader eligibility requirements than the present program, which offers a 50 percent rebate. "In looking at the new program, we had to decide what was in the best interests of the farm community, although the new pro- gram is not what we originally asked for," OFA President Ralph Barrie said. Barrie was referring to a proposal by the government to rebate 100 percent of proper- ty taxes on productive farmland. However, after the proposal was announced, further research found out that the plan would ac- tually increase taxes for many farmers and cause problems with equalization payments. "The OFA policy has always been to reform the property tax system," Barrie said. The OFA believes the property tax system needs to be reformed because farmers shoulder an unfair portion of property taxes. The new proposal will help lighten thisload by increasing the rebate, allow more farmers to participate, guarantee property rights and guarantee the program through regulation, Barrie pointed out. The OFA's stand on the new program was set at a board of directors meeting held in Toronto last week.
