Tripartite pays bean
producers X20 million
More than $20 million will be sent to On-
tario and Alberta white pea bean pro-
ducers enrolled in the National Tripartite
Price Stabilization Program.
The announcement was made today by
the National Stabilization Committee of
representatives from producers groups
and federal and provincial governments,
pursuant to the National Tripartite
Stabilization Planfor beans as signed by
the federal government and the provinces
of Ontario and Alberta.
About 2,700 white pea bean producers in
Ontario and Alberta are eligible for this
stabilization payment based on 1987 crop
yields. A supplementary premium of
$44.72 has been deducted from the total
payment of $237.27 per tonne to ensure the
financial soundness of the program. This
results in a net payout of $192.55 per tonne.
The agreement binds participating pro-
ducers to any necessary premium
modifications made by the National
Stabilization Committee and requires pro -
Eggs go up
Egg Prices Up In
Most Provinces
The price paid to producers for Grade A
large eggs in June will increase by one
cent per dozen in all provinces except
Nova Scotia where the price will be the
same as in May, the Canadian Egg
Marketing Agency (CEMA) announced
today.
The price increase is due to higher feed
costs and an increase in interest rates.
CEMA sets the producer price for Grade
A large eggs at the beginning of each
month using a cost of production formula.
The federal government's National
Farm Products Marketing Council is ad-
vised of the prices before they are
announced.
ducers to pay any.premiums over nine per
cent.
A stabilization payment is triggered
when the market price drops below the
support price. The support price is the
price guaranteed to white pea bean pro-
ducers under the tripartite agreement.
The stabilization payment is based on
the difference between support prices and
their estimated average market returns.
The 1987 support price is $529.60 per tonne
for white pea beans.
Producer premiums for the 1988 crop
have been set at $22.17 per tonne.
Outside of any supplementary
premiums which are required to keep the
plan financially viable, producers and both
levels of government contribute equally to
the stabilization fund through annual
premiums. Administrative costs are borne
by the two levels . of government and are
not financed by producers.
The program was established last year
to stabilize returns to the bean industry for
a 10 -year period.
