Plan land use, OFA head says As long as industry dictates its own location in the province, too much fertile land will be taken out of food production, Gordon Hill, president, told the annual con- vention of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture in Hamilton on Monday. Once a factory site has been chosen, supportive services, -- power transmission and pipe- lines, homes, service highways and recreational facilities -- must develop close by, he pointed out. There is some choice of which farm land will be taken for these developments, but the choice is narrow. "If the people of Ontario allow a steel mill to be built on the north shore of Lake, Erie, we know the general area where all other necessary services will be provided. "Instead, we should be able to say to a steel mill: 'Locate in a less developed, less congested area where land and climate are less suitable for food production'. Then the choice on where to locate supportive services would be much wider. "As long as industry dictates its own location, choices for farmers are limited and farms will suffer." Mr. Hill said. Mr. Hill said the OFA will continue its crusade for rational land use planning and urged the farmer-delegates to get involved in local planning issues. However, he pointed out farmers must be compensated for land frozen into agriculture. He told the meeting that starvation is an affront to farmers who know it need not be as widespread and prevalent as it is today. He urged the Canadian government to make available funds to help Canadian farmers share their talents with farmers in developing countries. "Many ingenious Canadian farmers have the skill to make do, invent, fabricate and make work whatever is at hand. "These are the people the Canadian government must help to share their talents with farmers in developing nations -- not wooly-headed ivory tower scientists -- but practical farmers who can make things work." He warned politicians and other detractors not to try to dismantle farm marketing legisla- tion. "Fairness and equality in the Market place do not just happen. They are the result of equal bargaining power," he pointed ..out. "Farmers know well the results of Unequal bargaining power between a large number df small sellers versus a few large buyers. WC have lived with the results for generations. 4—THE BRUSSELS POST,
