IPM landowners paid
for property use
. ,
Landowners whose
land was used for the pig
International Plowing
Match Sept. 26-30have all
been paid for the use'of
the property, IPM land
comrnittee chairman
Barry Mulvey said last
week.
But despite wild
rumors circulating, the 15
or so farmers involved
received "very little
compensation for the risk
involved," he added.
He had heard rumors
that host farmer Jim
Armstrong and other host
farmers profited from
IPM '78 to the tune of
thousands of dollars
each.
In fact, the various host
farmers were paid a total
of $23,445 for the use of
their property.. That .was
in payment for the Use of '
about 1,250 acres of
farmland.
. The land committee
recently sent cheques to
host farmers, paying for
use of the land at the rate
of $22" an acre for parking
areas, $25 -an are for
land used for plowing
competitions and $70 an
acre for the tented city
site.
The farmers could have
made more money if they
had rented the property
to another farmer for
normal farm use, Mr.
Mulvey said. There was
also some risk involved in
allowing the land to be
used for plowing match
purposes. If the weather
had been as wet as It was
'-
for the 1966 plowing
match in Seaforth or the
1.977 ,IPM. in Frontenac
County, the rains and
heavy traffic could have
compacted the fields and
made them hard to till.
The. land committee's
job was made easier by
the co-operation it had
from landowners and the
Huron County develop-
ment committee. Mr: •
Mulvey said. The
development .committee
provided labor to prepare
the IPM site by, trimming
brush and Cleaning up
after the five-day match.
Farmers who wanted to
do their part for IPM '78
also helped.
"Even a couple of days
before the match, we
needed more land," he
said. "We got it, no
questions asked."
Many people from out
of the area were sur-
prised by the co-
operation shown by local
people in presenting IPM
'78., Mr. Mulvey said.
Fin& profit figures
fro= IPM ,1.8 haven't
been tabulated yet, Mr.
Mulvey said, because
there are stili some bills
to cone in. What is nown
is that the match was a
financial success and that
area people worked
together well on the huge
project.
One of the most telling
things Mr. Mulvey said
he could say about the
plowing match was that a
lot of people would do it
all over again.'

Over 140 members
attended the meeting. and
Meal. 'Gordon Bell,
fieldrnan, reported a good
year with 119 new
members with 28 coming
from Huron County.
"We feel there is a
shortage of testing and
classification programs
available." said Mr. Bell.
"We are hoping to rectify
this with help from the
provincial and federal
governments."
Mr. Bell encouraged
members to play a larger
part in the showing
cattle. He felt that
breeders could do a lot
more culling of un-
desireables.
"I realize prices are
hard against this but it is
still necessary." said Mr.
Bell.
Jim Needham national
director reported that it
has been a good year for
exports which are up 100
percent both for U.S.
and foreigh exports.
There are ' new only
three directors from
Ontario instead . of '4.
Councillors from each
area will discuss with the
director's show and up
coming plans. Coun-
cillors are determined by
the number of dairy men
in a county. Huron has
two.
Cliff McNeil and Tom
Consitt from United
Breeders urged members
to make use of the young
bull semen available. If
no results are noted from
members then the young
bulls will be taken off the
list. Over $1 million
dollars in exported semen
was reported by Mr.
McNeil.

Gordon Hill, a Varna
area farmer, announced
the formation of an Agri -
Skills Abroad ComMittee
of the Ontario Federation
of Agriculture.
In answer to a question
from Jack Stafford, a
Wroxeter area farmer,
Mr. Hill stated there are
two projects in other
lands being considered by
O.F,A.
O.F,A. will consider
sponsoring a young
farmer from Ghana
wishing to come to
Canada to learn about
agriculture here. It was
pointed out that the most
modern farming methods
are not necessarily those
which will be of the most
use to this man. Smaller
and less mechanized
farm operations would
possibly be more suitable
for this type of
educational project.
County federations , are
now`,acicepting names, of
those , interested in
hosting a farmer from
Ghana.
A feasibility study of a
Costa Rica village for
abandoned "children will
be undertaken. A first
zehrs
village which has its own
bakery and which also
sells eggs and vegetables
is already operating
successfully. A second
village is in the planning
stages. Each village
occupies 50 acres of land
and consists of 12 houses
aid
with 10 children and
house parents, in 'each
house. O.F.A. will be
looking for a person to go
to Costa Rica to study
markets and recommend
what kind of crops could
be produced in con-
julletipn with the villages.
