No. 4 Farm Forum met Ferns Forum Meets week at the home of Mr, and Mrs. Irvine sTebbutt. The radio topic for discussion was, "What sets Farm Prices?" T 's is a live subject which ev y farmer min -discuss. The conclusions arrived at af- r were that it is net possible for farmers to control the prices they receive for their produce because our products are Me perishable for us to make de- mands, In eases where our pro- duce can be stored, some market- ing scheme could be used. For example: the poultry producers schemes for the storage of eggs, etc. We `would like to see some of these schemes tried, but are doubtful of complete success. It was decided that marketing boards and the government, should be responsbile for market- ing surplus farm produce, and that it would be more satisfact- ory to the farmer to have prices stabilized.
