Dairymen advised to fill milk quota 100 per cent Total milk mai'ketings were 2.9 per cent higher in March, 1984 than in March 1983, marking the fourth consecutive month of increases. Month -over -month increases were 0.1, 1.4 and 3.7 per cent for Dec., Jan., and Feb. respectively. These relative increases were not unex- pected since production fell sharply during the latter part of the 1982/83 dairy year in response to quota reductions. The current estimate for provincial utilization of MSQ for the dairy year is 104 per cent, based on the following factors: actual marketinp from August, 1983 to March 1984; forecasting total milk supplies for the remainder of the dairy year to be up 2.9 per cent, assuming fluid sales for the current dairy year to be 1.5 per cent higher than last year, and; assuming 100 per cent utilization of cream 9uota. The projected provincial utilization of MSQ is down slightly from last month (104.5), due mainly to a lower month -over -month increase in March (2.9 per cent) compared to February (3.7 per cent). The ,projected year-end provincial MSQ utilization will vary in the coming months, depending on what steps producers take to bring production in line with quota holdings. The quota systemUsZtigkt and the over -quota levy refund situation remains unchanged. Producers are strongly advised to bring production in line with their 1983/84 quota holdings and should aim to fill 100 per cent of their quota. FLI W MILK MARKET On a sales day adjusted basis, fluid milk sales decreased by 0.7 per cent in March compared to March 1983, This follows increases of 1.5 per cent in February, 4 per cent in January and a decrease of 0.2 per cent in December, compared to the same months a year ago.

Mr. F rmer: This spring let Thompson's supply your 1984 Crop inputs Expert advice by a qualified staff to assist you in your planning. Backed by 60 years of serving the agriculture Sector Hydro policy Ontario Hydro has implemented changes to its policy on compensation paid for easements for wood pole power lines. A number of items in the policy/have been updated to reflect changes in land values and to improve compensation for inconven- iences caused, These items include: a new median land value for farm properties used to calculate easement payments (increased from $2471 to $3200 per hectare); a general increase in pole payments from $75 to $90. The policy is designed to ensure that everyone directly affected by wood pole lines is dealt with openly and equitably. It takes into account land values, crop losses and any possible inconveniences resulting from the structures. The low -voltage lines affected by the policy change are, in most cases, carried on now in effect FOR SALE single or twin wooden poles in areas directly served by Ontario Hydro. Easement rights are acquired for wood pole lines on residential, commercial, industrial and cottage properties, as well as farm land. An easement allows Ontario Hydro limited rights on land use. It may build and operate a power line, enter the property from time to time to inspect, repair, replace, maintain or remove the line, and to do essential tree -cutting or trimming. Although not permitted to erect buildings on the easement area, owners retain ordinary nse of the land along with the r+ist of their land rights. Changes become effective Apr. 2 and will be reviewed on a regular basis. For further information contact your regional Ontario Hydro office. . r-� Feeney Construction Ltd.
