STETT JEWELLERS Main Corner CLINTON 482.3901 Farm Ohtario farmers get federal aid Ontario grain and oilseed producers can expect a payment from the federal $1 billion deficiency progr announced last month by the Mulroney government. "The payment will be in cash, and is to be paid out before the end of the calendar year," reported Brigid Pyke, First Vice - President of the Ontario and Canadian Federations of Agriculture. After attending a Nov. 6 meeting in Ottawa with Federal Agriculture Minister, John Wise and Minister responsible for the Canadian Wheat Board, Charlie Mayer, Mrs. Pyke presented the case for Ontario producers along with representatives from Ontario's Corn, Soyabean, Wheat and Pork Boards. "We expect the deficiency payment aymo o be based on three factors: seeded acreage, regional productivity, and the shortfall in commodity prices caused by the U.S. Farm Bill and subsidies in the European Economic Community. All grain and oilseed producers should benefit regardless of end use," said Pyke. The total payment to Ontario producers should be between $120 and $150 million, depending on which of the distribution for- mulas considered at the Nov. 6 meeting is actually used. The $150 million payment would result from the use of a formula heavily weighted by the average value of grains and oilseeds produced over a five year period. The lower figure could result if the degree of "hurt" in 1986 over 1985 was given significant weight. It is argued that if wheat prices have fallen relatively more than other grain prices, then financial distress in the West e tw willbe more acute and the payment wheat producers should be relatively higher. Pyke commended the government for the overall initiative and speed with which Mr. Wise's officials are working to get these dollars out to farmers before year end.
