CARL HEMINGWAY Just happened to run across the spring issue of the Market Place Quarterly and found some interesting reading. I've been wondering how the hog prices have managed to hold up as well as they have. I wondered, if we were exporting to Japan. and my guess was correct. Sixteen million pounds of pork went to Japan. This is considerably less than a week's production but it just goes to show that a very small portion of the product can have an important effect on the market price of a farm product. It is important that we find and keep all the export markets we can supply. The article goes on to point out that there should be an export Agency for marketing hogs but it was PORK that we exported to Japan. This would mean that the processing would be done in Canada which would provide that many more jobs. It also suggests that farmers might want to sell on U.S. or off shore markets on a forward contract at a guaranteed price. Arrangements would be made through the Provincial Marketing Board and co-ordinated by a National Hog Marketing Agency. Apparently it's a good idea at least for somebody since I have already been told that contracts of this kind are available through some feed companies. I think farmers should take a long look at the proposition being offered, The people who make the offers of a future price make a full time study of the market conditions of the future and on a percentage basis they have to be right or they don't eat which also means that the farmer has to he wrong most of the time. Secondly, it is a costly set up. The Feed Company has to he paid, the Provincial Marketing Board has to he paid, the National Agency will have to be paid and transportation is more costly for hogs than pork. especially on long hauls (have you forgotten the western calf problem?). Distribution of the product could be done much more cheaply in the importing country if the product could go directly to the retailer rather than shipping to a processor and then to retail. Why don't the PORK Producers go all "hog" and make a contract with the Processors to process the hogs and the Marketing Board sell all the pork. It could be done! After all the Packers only want a profit. Of course it would be a lot easier if producers owned their own plants. GIVE MOM THE SCENT OF LOVELINESS...
