WITH ADRIAN VOS,
At a farmer's meeting I attend-
ed, the 'farmers were asked to fill
out a questionnaire stating among
other things what the value ,of their
farm, egnipment and livestock is.
Another question asked theiir aver-
age income over the last five years.
The result was rather shocking.
Eighty percent had a value of
between $100,000 and $300,000
invested. The income from this
investment for 70% was less than
$10,000 over the last five years. If
one compares this with the $13,000
income per year that the postman
are asking, one must ask Oneself:
"What am I doing farming? Why
not take a job from 8 to .5 that
requires no investment, and in
many cases, little, brains, and sell
the bloody farm". Well; I guess
you know the answer. We don't
work for the money alone. We like,
to be our own boss. We like to
make our own decisions and where
else can one expect ,to do this better
than on the farm. We are nuts, but
we are by and large contented nuts.
So be it.
A story in McLeans magazine
bewailed ,the fact that so much
grain is fed to livestock. It is by
and large a good article even if the
writer's facts about the amount of
grain needed to produce a pound of
meat are way off. base. If his figure
was accurate, not one pound of
meat would be produced, because
the Price would be so high that only
the very rich could afford to buy it.
His concern about the underfed
peoples of the world I share.
However, before we as farmers
-should feel guilty for producing
meat,, and consumers for buying it,
we should first get our priorities
right. Enormous amounts of
number one wheat, barley and corn
are used to produce gin, beer, and
whiskey, while the grain used for ,
livestock feeding, is' lower grade,
which, is not used for food. After
society cuts out the use of alcoholic
drinks' and stops eating pastry,
then I would feel guilty if there is a
shortage of grain. I! one western
society would lift import restric-
tions on products from 'the poorer
world and pay them a reasonable
price for their product, they would
be' able to buy ' our grain at, a
reasonable price, or better still they
could afford to irrigate their crops
and put on enough fertilizer so they
could grow their own crops..
