Agriculture and Food Minister, Bill Newman, has released an agricultural inventory based on a study of Provincial Assessment data. The figures show that Ontario has 16,805,715 acres of land in farm use, of which 75 percent is in the southwest, central and eastern regions. Another two million acres is available for production, a potential increase of 16 percent The remaining 25 percent of agricultural land in use is the northern and shield regions. In these areas the reserve is over 17 million. acres. Although the use of much of this land is limited by soil and climate conditions, a significant proportion of it is suitable for forage and grain crops. The reserve of agricultural land includes small holdings, both residential and vacant, as well as land that has not been farmed for more than ueen's Park two years. Small holdings are those over 25.99 acres. These are considered large enough to be farmed. The vacant properties included are those over 10.99 acres. Because they have no structures on them, they are considered a suitable size for certain agricultural uses. In releasing these statistics, Mr. Newman said "The assessment data demonstrate that in addition to its Targe acreage in agricultural use, Ontario also has a significant reserve of agricultural land available for the future." As a matter of interest Huron County has 763,933 acres in farm usie and 3988 acres in reserve land or expressed in percentages, there is .5 peCCeni land m Huron County., dlesex County ha's Band farm use and 3,528 a'' reserve land.
