Agriculture
Tidbits
With Adrian Vos
At a hearing about a proposed .
zoning change in Huron County ,
the county planner revealed a con-
cept that we ' are conditioned to.
This concept is that agriculture.
can be rolled back, but residen-
tial development can't. When a
farm group stated that agricultur-
al' expansion on some of the best
farmland in Canada , the land
West of Highway 21, North of
Goderich, would be severely cur-
tailed if recreationaldevelopment
is allowed, the planner stated that
it was curtailed now because of
residences having been built prev-
iously too close to livestock opera
tions. In the planner's view this
means that the wedge is in and the
developers can go ahead and
gobble up alt of it.
No thought is given to the possi-
bility of putting the bulldozer to
those houses: But those houses
represent a value of maybe
$30,000, while the affected farms
will be between $100,000 and
$300,000. That we won't be
able to feed the people
who live in those houses in the
next generation if they sit right on
top of our .bread basket, is appar-
entlyo not thought of. It is about
time that non-farm consumers
join the farmer in the preservation
of food producing land, for their
childrenwill be the ones that will
be hurt first.
We commend the townships
around Chatham who resist expan-
sion of the city on the grounds
that it will be at the expense of
good land. If a community has a
good •balance of industry and resid
ences, there is no reason that it
should grow , except for the false
idea that a larger city will be
mote important , and with it the
town officials.
A prime example of a growth
hungry city is Sarnia. The Petro-
sar plant could be built in Alberta
on less valuable land. It.rriay cost
more to ship the finished product
to market, but this will be more
than offset by the lower future
cost of shipping imported food to
market.
aaa*o
Another example of irrespon-
sible waste of good food producing
land is in the Nanticoke area
where the Ontario government
designates 'more than 20,000 acres
of goodfarmland to industrial and
residential development. These
acres are able to produce enough,
energy to feed about 2 million '
peopl z for a whole year.
