It usually isn't the price of our product that keeps us poor, but of our greed to have more, to be bigger, better and more efficient The same happened in the 1950s in the egg business. Farmers, with a few hundred hens were making money Then, some farmers thought why not make more money, so they increased flocks to several thousand birds. Within a few months, nobody was making mone', This also happened in the broiler and turkey industry The result was quotas were introduced after some farmers complained loud and long This has resulted in a large percentage of the poultry farming business being in the hands of multi -national companies We are now seeing the same thing hopper ur the beef industry. in the 1960s and '70e some farmers increased their cattle herds from, say, 250 head to several hundred. and often, to more than 1,000. In that same time period, farmers could do one of two things — get their debt under controi as inflation was rising: or. expand Inflation allowed expansion on paper anis )farmers borrowed 'against equity. This resulted in high, land prices because farmers wanted more My answer to the beef vote is NO Here's my reason. When the Ontario Milk Marketing Board was forced on tie, we were given a small quota, the same amount of quota which we have today. It was enough at the start, but in order to get enough quota for my operation today, I would have to pur- chase $100,000 worth of it The borrowing cost would be greater than if I put the same amount of money in the bank. One of the needs for additional quota are cutbacks we have experienced over the years. instead of buying quota. we feed the extre milli tc calves, and we raise our own replacement heifers We are doing well at our operation. The free enterprise system lets me sell veal calves wherever I can get the best price However. under a supply management system, I would have to take whatever a beef commission would dictate. The BPFC' have said they can't market their own cattle for a profit. Should I take the chance• they can through a beef ,marketing commission and supply management when I'm already making a profit? No, it's not a chance I'm willing to take Sincerely Rein. Wassink. RR2, Harriston. April • from page IOA P.S.
