programs needed a practical knowledge
of agriculture. Co-op education has a
good name with employers across uie
country and the three semester system at
the University lends itself to a co-op
schedule (four months on campus and
four months on the job).
Advantages to both employers and
students are numerous, according to the
University Counselling and Student
Resource Centre. Co-op students
generally stay in their initial positions
longer after graduation. Also, students
may be hired to fill in for vacations or to
assist during peak load periods. Students
have an opportunity to gain experience
and practical knowledge in the area of
their speciality so their career
expectations are more realistic. Academic
achievement often improves because the
student can see the practical application of
studies. And communication skills are
sharpened by the necessity to file a
comprehensive work report on each job
experience.
Co-op programs are available at the
Ontario Agricultural College in
agricultural business. agricultural
economics, animal and poultry science,
crop science and dairy science. Also at
the College of Biological Science in
applied microbiology, applied chemistry
and computing and information science.
McCallum told Rural Voice: "I would
be very pleased to hear from any student
or employer who would like more
information on our co-op programs."

In outlining the new standards. the
OMMB and OMAF said they thought
producers would have little difficulty in
complying.
Brent says that has been the case in his
jurisdiction, the county of Perth. Out of
their Stratford offices, he and his staff deal
with about eight hundred producers, of
which about one hundred are in Group II.
"It's quite obvious to me that producers
are adjusting to the Grade A standards,"
says Brent, who maintains that next year
Perth will overtake front -running Oxford
as Ontario's top milk producing county.
Hampered by holidays and illness, the
Perth staff needed all of last month to visit
the seventy-five or eighty producers still
awaiting a Grade A rating. They'll know
