log of September that
draitically reduced the
quantity and quality of the
beans grown in those regions.
Broadivell said that the
original estimate of the bean
crop had been reduced from 1.8
minim bap to 15 million two
weeks ago but steady rains in
Huron, ,Perth and Middlesex
have caused the marketing
board to wonder what the final
figure of production will be. He
said that each day the weather
turns foul the figure goes down
some and the chancesof
rescuing the cropbecoraeless.

Wens and this Combined with'
the production in Perth and
Middlesex accounts for about
85 percent of this year's ex-
pected yields. The total area
used for bean production in
Southern Ontario amounts to
about 165,000 acres and of that ,
about 30 percent of the crops
have been harvested;
Mike NUller„ agricultural
representative from the Clinton
office of theprovincial ministry
of agriculture, regards the
outlook on the bean crop as
dismal if -the weather doesn't
dry up. " He said that the
producers are set to go into
their fields and harvest the
crops but steady daily rains
have prevented them from
doing so.
Mr. Miller explained that as
the rain continues the pOds that
house the bean in the field
becomes thinner and thinner
and could possibly break,

The Sky Harbor weather

reasons the bean producers

The big difference between
this September and the same
Period last year i that since

The longest period the county
went without rain haS been four
days Erika September 13 to
September 18. This combined
with the fact that there have
been only five days in Sep-
tember when the temperature
has been over 59 degrees F. has
created the problems for the
bean growers.

Quite' a- few farms in Huron
rely on the bean production for
about half of theirttincomet
according to Mr.. MilIar Hi
said that with no harvest the
incomes would suffer despite
the fact that a great many
producers have their crops
insured. The insurance, he felt,
would only cover the producers
costs in planting the crop.
Both Mr: Miller and Mr.
Broadwell agree that not only
the beans have been affected by
the wet weather. They ex-
plained that bean producers
are now facing the task of
taking tWo crops off their fields
simultaneously if the weather
improves. Corn crops are ready
to come off and if the weather
dries up toallow the farmers to
take their heavy machinery
into corn fields then it will
probably be dry enough to
allow them to harvest the
beans.
Mr. Miller explained that
corn does not have to be dry to
be harvested. He said that the
kernels could suffer damage
and still be used since it will
probably be crushed for con-
sumption. He added that
anyone planning on putting in
winter wheat has to get
working on the crop and if they
are working on beans they will
be delayed. r"'"
Mr. Broadwell said that even
if the crop is almost ruined it
will probably be worth the
producer's time to harvest it.
He said that the other major
bean producing area in corn-
pOtition with Ontario farmers
have been suffering from
weather.
