Interesting farm facts
The following information comes from our friends
at Agriculture and Agri -Food Canada
TORONTO - Did you know a five -row shelterbelt
of trees around a farm house can reduce by 25 per
cent the energy required to heat the house?
• Did you know the 19,866 hectares of land pro-
tected by field belts will conserve 3.58 million
tonnes of topsoil over a 30 -year period? At a value
of $5/tonne, this represents a total topsoil value of
$17.9 million.
• Did you know the trees distributed by the
Sheleterbelt Centre in 2004 will absorb nearly 1.8
million tonnes of CO2 by 2054?
•Did you know since 1989, Agriculture and Agri -
Food Canada's Permanent Cover Programs have
converted the equivalent of 653,000 soccer fields to
permanent cover?
POLICE BRIEF
South Huron break-ins
SOUTH HURON - On June 19 two break-ins were
reported to OPP. Workers at an agricultural business
on Alexander Road reported a barn was forced open
through the night. It's believed two pigs valued at $700
were loaded into an older pickup truck and taken away.
The second call was to a William Street residence
where a garage door was forced open. Nothing was
taken but the door sustained $500 in damage.
