The Minister of Agriculture and
Food fot Ontario, the Hon. Wil-
liam A. Stewart has announced
two substantial changes in the
program of "Capital Grants for
Ontario Farmers", which was in-
troclucqd in 1967. Both of these
changes take place immediately.
The first change involves an ex-
pansion of the program to include
livestock fencing as an item elig-
ible forsuch grants. The
revision to the program provides
that capital grants of up to 40%
of the. cost of providing new ,
permanent livestock fencing
will be made available. The
grants will apply only to the cost
of materials.
The Capital Grants Program
provides that any farmer who had
a gross income of $3,000.from his
farm operation in the previous
year may be eligible for grants
of up to 40% of the cost of
certain capital works projects, to
a maximum grant of $3,000. In
the' case 'of partnerships or fam-
ily farm corporations., where
two or mdre families are actually
-involved-in -the-operaticri-of the
farm, the maximum grant avail-
able is $6 ,000. Where a farmer
rents his land , he may be eligible
for grants if the' gross farm in-
come of the tenant exceeds
$3,000 annually.
Assistance is available in four
main categories.
(a) Farm Drainage , Farm Struc7
tures and Orchard Tree Removal;
(b) Field Enlargement, Farm
Water Supply; (c) Farm Vacation
Hosting (maximum grant $1,560);
(d) Removal of Dead and
Diseased Elm Trees (Maximum
$500).
The second change in the Cap-
ital Grants Program involves the
section dealing with the removal
of. Dead and Diseased Elm Trees.
This special program, 'introduced
April 1, 1971 provides for the pay-
ment of grants of $5.00 per
tree , to a maximum of $5/00 per

farm. As of May 19, 1912, this
Program will apply only to Dead
.and Diseased Elm Trees located on
t fence lines and in open fields
and will cease to apply to Elm
trees located in farm woodlots or
forested areas.
In commenting on these chang-
.es in the Capital Grants Program .
Mr. Stewart elaborated on the
Program. "'The inclusion of live-
'stock fencin4, as grantable item
in this Program is consistent with
the Government's long-range assis-
tance policy for the beef cow-calf
industry" , he said. "Earlier today,
I announced a .program of govern-
ment guaranteed bank loans to
beef cow-calf operators to assist
them in expanding their herds.
Fencing is a vital part of livestock
farming, and we felt it impera-
tive that new permanent livestock
fencing be added to the list 'of
eligible items in this program."
"With respect to the limita-
tions to the Dead and Diseased
Elm Tree Program, we have been
impressed by the very logical
arguments of professional fCrest-
-ers-who-a-re-concerned-w-ith
woodlot management and good
forestry practices. We still wish
to see these unsightly objects re-
moved from our farm fence lines
and open fields where they are1a
hazard to livestock, farm mach-
inery and fences. Therefore, the'
program will continue with these
limitations."
Capital Grant application
forms are available at County and
District Offices of the Ontario
Ministry Of Agriculture and Food.
