Producers offended by council The Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board is taking strong issue with statements made by the Bakery Council of Canada regarding recommendations of the Ad- visory Council on Adjustment relative to the pricing of domestic wheat. Board chairman Glen Courtis, R.R. 4, Wallaceburg, said the board .finds the Bakery Council's news release of March 29, 1989, unbelievably lacking in understanding of the wheat .producers' welfare in free trade developments with the United States. In particular, the wheat board takes issue with Bakery Council board member J. Peter Wygant, Weston Foods Ltd., who was credited with saying "Canada/U.S. free trade demands an environment where bakers, millers, and other food manufac- turers have flexibility and freedom to pur- chase commodities without regulatory con- straint. There is no place for managed markets in a free trade scenario where United States competitors are unconstrain- ed by regulatory bodies in the purchase of product inputs." The Ontario Wheat Board charges that Canadian wheat producers are being disad- vantaged by about $40.00 per tonne U.S. sub- sidy already since being forced to change from a two price policy to a "North American" price recently. Mr. Courtis said for the Bakery Council to completely ignore the wheat producers' dilemma in trying to compete with subsidiz- ed United States wheat and wheat products, is unacceptable and is evidence that domestic wheat production and its future is of no consequence to the manufacturing mThe wheat board also charges that the Bakery Council's disregard for the need to have orderly marketing through the regulatory process in Canada simply means the council does not want wheat .producers to have any input or influence in the sale of their product and that is absolutely unac- ceptable as well. The Bakery Council says bakers and other food manufacturers need to purchase agricultural inputs at the same open market prices available to their American counter- parts, and the wheat board says that is without any consideration to differences in producers' cost of production including cheaper fuel in the United States and many other input costs. In order for the wheat board to address these important factors directly, it has in- vited the Bakery Council and federal government representation to meet with the directors in an attempt to get the industry to understand dompaestic wheat production is being threatened by simply aligning the whole marketing process to United States grain marketing policies but not aligning - American grain support, and subsidy policies and that is a very unfair and dangerous development in the eyes of the Ontario Wheat Board. FCC announces new rates for loans The Farm Credit Corporation (FCC) has announced the interest rates for loans financed by short- and mid-term funds will goupp in response to the rising costs of those ds. Going up half a point to 13 per cent are the rates on loans with five-year interest terms as well as Farm Syndicate loans. Syndicate loans are for the joint purchase of machinery and buildings. The Shared Risk Mortgage rate rises a quarter point to 13.25 percent. This type of loan is designed to minimize risk to the farmer during periods of fluctuating in- terest rates, with the costs or benefits of in- terest rate changes shared equally between FCC and the borrower. The rates on loans with interest terms fix- ed for 10 or more years remain unchanged. The following rates apply to loans approved after March 23, 1989: Shared Risk Mortgage 13.25%, 5 -year fixed interest term 13.00%, Farm Syndicate Loans 13.00%, 10 plus years fixed interest terms 12.75%.
