The computerized ration formulation service from the University of Guelph, which was in the experimental stage last year, ,will be more available to help farmers calculate their protein needs this year, „Mr. Pullen .,said. The cost for a complet&analysis of a hay sample is $11.50. Dairy farmers who are consi- dering withdrawing grain totally from their cows feed to lower their milk output in order to stay within their quota should give the matter second thoughts, the agriculture rep. told the farmers. "You are probably cheating the cow, and yourself too," he said. Farmers under the IMPIP program can now get a two year' extension on their payments, "but it is probably better to keep up., payments within the prescribed period,". Mr. Pullen said.

"The important thing to remember is there are different types of purchasers in the market. Some of us see it that $400 to $500 per acre is the top price you can pay and get any economic return from it. Some look at land as security though, a hedge against inflation, and are willing to pay much more for it," he said. • The young farmer starting on his own with no one backing him won't likely made it, Mr. Pullen said. .
