There'g..old refrain about the
problem of keeping yoking people
down on the' farm after they've
seen the city lights.
But sometimes the problem is
how to send,people back to the
city after they've spent a summer
down on the farm.
Len MacGregor, supervisor of
the junior agriculturalist program
in Hitron.County, said some of the
/city students enjoy farm life so
mucho, they out to. stay and work
on their weekends off.
The Junior Agriculturalist Pro-
gram. which has been ope/ating
for about six years, allows 3,00
students, aged 16 and 17. with
no farm experience, to spend the
' summer working on a farm.
• Theprogram. sponsored by the
• Ontario Ministry of Agriculture
and FoOd, (OMAF) will bring up,
to 20 city students to Huron
County farms.
Mr. MacGregor said students
are told about the program
through their high"Schools, Last
year. 900 students across the
province applied for the 300
positions which were opep,
Under the program, junior
agriculturalist are given a train-
ing allowance of 111, with host
farmers providing $5 of this
amount, and room and board to
the student.
Mr. MacGregor is .currently
processing applications from area
farmers interested in hosting a
student for the summer months.
Mr. MacGregor said he has
received only six applications to
date and hopes to have between
15 and 20 applications by the May
15 deadline.
' Mr. MacGregor said most of
the, applications come from-dairy
farmers and most of the students
apply to work on dairy operations.
