ks indicated, a third.
national agency for,
chickens has been ap-
proved just recently.
CEM k has a cost -of -
production formula-
. which is continually
reviewed and which is the
basis of the producer
price across Canada.. 4,11
provinces have their own
egg marketing boards,
however, which dole out
individual production
quotas to farmers, ap-
proved each year by
CEMk.
The situation is slightly
different for turkeys. The
federal body sets
production quotas but the
producer price is
determined by eachof the
eight provincial
marketing boards in
existence (Newfoundland
and Prince Edward
Island don't produce
enough turkeys to
warrant boards.)
Nationally, industrial
milk (used for ice cream,
cheese and other dairy
products) is produced
under strict quotas set by
the Canadian Dairy
Commission (CDC) and
doled out to farmers by
provincial marketing
hoards. The CDC sets' a
target •price, which - the
provinces use as a base in
determining the in-
dividual farmer price for
every 100 pounds of milk.
Production and price of
fluid milk used for
drinking is the respon-
sibility of the provincial
boards.
As well, Ontario
tobacco growers operate
under strict production
quotas but the crop is sold
by auction each_ year to
tobacco firms.
Western wheat growers
operate under the
Canadian Wheat Board
whicl)-,does not set prices
for export wheat.
'However, all wheat sold
domestically (including
Ontario winter wheat,
marketed by a , separate
provincial marketing
hoard ) is sold ata pegged
price. Export wheat -
again, including the
Ontario crop - is sold at
world prices by the
Canadian and Ontario
wheat boards.
This plethora of
marketing boards seems
complex, but in order to
judge their effectiveness,
one can look at price
performance.
THE IDEA BEHIND
7'}IE BOARDS
The whole idea behind
marketing boards is to
provide so-called fair
returns to farmers and
keep prices stable. Board
•supporters argue that
stability • in the farm
sector leads to stability of
retail prices:
Eggs, for example,
have ,6,hown remarkably
stable' --prices • (although
they have generally in-
creased each year) in the
recent past. From 1974 to
1977, producer prices' for
Grade k large eggs in
Toronto averaged 56.17
cents a dozen; 60.67
cents; 70.33 cents; and
70.83 cents. For the same
period, Toronto retail egg
prices averaged 82 cents
a dozen; 82,1 cents; 87.4
cents; and 8.6.2 cents.
For hen ` turkeys.
weighing 10 to 16 pounds,
producer' -prices in
Toronto from 1974 to 1977
were 41.8 cents a pound;
42.4 cents.; 46.6 cents; an -d
46.7 cents. For the same
pertotl, retail prices were
76.4 cents a pound: 8.0.6
cents: 92.7 cents; and 92.2
cents.
Marketing board
supporters look at those
figures and claim that
they indicate the price
stability for farmers and
consumers price and
production controls can
achieve.
The Ontario •
Greenhouse Vegetable
Producers' Marketing
Board, based in
Leamington, does not
control fresh tomato and
Cucumber production'but
sets a farmer price based
on market conditions.
Wholesalers then sell the
vegetables to stores.
