The first point asked the pro- vincial members regarding a study on cost of production asked for a year ago from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Durand prepared a budget projection all costs for an projection listing acre of bean production and the breakeven point was $13.28 a hundredweight at an expected yield of 12 hundredweight. On World Food Aid and Red Cross the bean brief was as follows: "Last fall because of an extremely difficult harvest we found ourselves in a position of generating a considerable volume of No. 4 grade beans. We approached the World Food Aid Organization in Ottawa, forwarded samples of the No. 4 grade beans which were accepted by these people and subsequent to this 1,428 Metric ton quantity of No. 4 grade beans have now been shipped for World Food Aid purposes. There is still a large volume in that we estimated a total amount of No. 4 grade beans of approxi- mately 125,000 hundred pound bags. We would ask that the Federal member Bob McKinley support our plea particularly in lieu of the recent earthquake disaster in Guatemala and additional interest be directed to Food Aid and that white beans Ile considered in this program. To our Provincial members Jack Riddell and Murray Gaunt: .We also approached the Ontario Provincial Government and asked Karen /Miller St ffa 4-H presid "4' nt K+n'en Miller was elected pi ii1ctit of Staffa No. 2 -11-1 I l,rmeniaking club at their organ• 1ioual niccti0 s Wcdnc.daV Ith.011 at the hong• of their leader. \lr,,, John Wallace.

Following the meeting the girls sampled Puffy; Dutch Minicakes made by Kathy Douglas. that 60.000 bags of No. 4 grade beans be considered to be pur- chased by, the Provincial Govern- ment and donated to the Red Cross. This applied equally to the World Food Aid Program as was mentioned re the aforementioned disaster. We would also like to thank both the Federal and . I r o.incral people for h a. sis - � o the .s t 1 1 antic given us in past years, In both of these programs." .lack Riddell said in communi- cation with Ontario Minister William Newman and Federal Minister Eugene Whelan he learned several food commodities were being considered for world aid. Murray Gaunt said he hoped both levels of government would participate and felt sending food to Guatemala and other countries would be an excellent way to show good will and also remove No. 4 beans from the local markets. Bob McKinley indicated the type of food to be received was left up to each individual country and he said price did have a bearing. Sales are made through the Canadian and International Development Associations. Phil Durand said he has been told by Eugene Whelan that a replacement for Dr. Jerry Haas at the Harrow research station would be a pathilogist to work on soybeans and white pea beans. On the subject of research money, the brief read: "Wc have established a record which we are proud of in terms of bean production in Canada and as a result of this, not only the 'excellent research work that has been done but the fact that our producers have been able to take this and put it to good use. We have been able to compete in world markets to the extent that when agency started in 1968 we were selling basically into one export country, Great Britain, and now we are selling into 19. Our total crop has doubled since 1968 and we experienced our largest crop in history with the 1974 crop of which 73% of the total amount was exported. We consistently out _yield our major competition in Michigan but feel that we have to make absolutely sure that we arc able to 'hold this position of compet- ition because it is becoming increasingly more difficult with our countries in the s.vorld becom- ing interested in producing beans that we maintain a very strong research base for the production of white and yellow eye beans. We would hope that both the Federal and Provincial members will see that the re- search budgets are not cut and that we receive the proper support that is absolutely necess- ary for us to maintain our compet- ition in the world. We feel that we are doing our part by export- ing the large quantities that we have in helping Canada with its balance of payments." Illwain and Vera Miller.
