Agricultural Minister 'Gardiner, an
nopnced a new agreement with Brit
ain's food ministry, under which Can
ada will send 675,000,000 pounds o
bacon and pork products to the 'Unit
ed Kingdom during the coming year
at a price of 10 per cent higher than
that paid during the curent year.
He said it would require the largest
production of hogs in Canada's history
—approximately 7,500,000 head—to
meet the shipments requested by Brit-
ain and to fulfil domestic requirements
as well.
The Dominion undertook to send
600,000,000 pounds to the United
Kingdom in the 1941-42 year, which
expires in about five weeks. Officials
expect the stipulated amount will be
delivered, provided the Canadian pub-
lic co-operate by putting off pork pur-
chases until next month..
In announcing the new agreement,
Mr. Gardiner forecast a 10 per cent
advance in hog prices in Canada.
Average price of A grade Wiltshire
sides at seaboard under the 1941-42
agreement is $19.77 for 100 pounds,
Under the new agreement the price is
$21.75. • ,
Hog prices increased on Monday,
with the Canadian Bacon Board mak-
ing up the difference until the old ag-
reement expires from cash reserves
which it has built up in handling the
bacon export trade during the past
year.
A department statement said that
when the 1941-42 agreement was 'sign-
ed, it was estimated "that the export
price of $19,77 would support hog
prices at a minimum level:of abaft $10
per 100 pounds liveweight at Winni-
peg. This 10 per cent increase in the
export price for baeon will provide an
equivalent increase in hog prices, or a
minimum price of about $11 per 100
pounds, liveweight at Winnipeg, dur-
ng the coining year.
The statement added that hog pric-
es rose considerably above the export
eve' during the past year, due to the
extra benefit to be found in the domes-
ic market. But in the last three
weeks hog prices weakened, following
reduction in the domestic quotas.
(The amount packers now are allowed
o move the domestic trade is limited
o 50 per cent of 1940 sales.) •
"The increase in the price to be Paid
or bacon by the Canadian govern-
trent will immediately advance hog
vices to the corresponding price that
s being paid for bacon under the new • greement,"
