"Many inputs have in-
flated by almost 20 per cent
over the last year," said Mr..
Pullen,
r.-
Pullen, • "and moreover,
bank interest rates areelo se'
to 20 per cent."
"It's a real problem for
those affected to.service.the
annual interest on massive
- bank oPerating loans," he
observed in his manual report
to Huron County Council last
Thursday.
- Mr. Pullen pointed out that
in his 1972773 report he had
noted a 100 -acre farm with
ordinary buildings' had sold
for $59,000. Within the last
two months this same type of
farm..has been selling for up
to $250,000.
Paradoxically, interest
rates were seven per cent in
1972 compared to almost 20
per cent now and prices for
some farm products are now
lower, he remarked.
Land rental is $40 'to $125
per acre, •depending on
drainage, location in the
county and the crop to be
grown and there is a trend ,
for, young farmers to rent
land, he said.
He reported bankers are
telling him that some pork
and beef farmers may be
forced out of business, and a
look at the local newspapers
shows auction • sales cer-
tainly have increased com-
pared to last year.
Considerable time has and
will continue to -..be directed
toward the objectives of
helping pork producers im-
prove their farm manage-
ment skills in an effort to
maintain profitability, said
Mr. Pullen. Cost control
measures are being vigor-
ously'applied at every turn
and the lid has. been
"hammered shut on most
proposed expansions".

Pullen,,
The- OMAF office has

flocks have been enrolled on
