"With that kind of quality as backing for our products it's no wonder we've been first in feed sales in this province for some time. Farmers trust our product and the people who work for the Cb -OP, After all, the business is owned by farmers themselves." The CRF network has more than 50 scientists from across North America pooling their expertise and evaluating the research trials being done on six farms in the United States. Each of these farms specializes in a particular sector of agriculture — dairy,. beef, swine, poultry, rabbits. Their program has been extensive. For example, in 1954 when UCO joined CRF this CO-OP sold 53 varieties of feed: the cur- rent list contains 201 varieties and in addition there are 175 custom feeds. These feeds are formulated from 454 feed ingredients licenced under the Canadian Feeds Act. "What's an added signi- ficance with the Wingham feed mill is the fact that all of ' this research and investi- gation is now available in a local outlet. We're proud of that. At Wingham we'll be able to buy local grain and to bring to the farmer inter- national expertise," Mr. Coulthard said. one employee, adding that farmers will be able to pick up feed at the mill if they make arrangements through their local CO-OP first. The loading area has 24 overhead loading bins with more than a 400 -tonne capacity, and a Toledo plat- form with an 80 -ton weighing capacity. The plant, featuring a 200 - HP pellet mill, complete with cooler, crumbler and screener; three molasses mixers; and a 150 -HP. horizontal oil fired boiler is said to be the most sophisticated in Canada. Together with its twin mill in, Peterborotigh and three other plants ili 'Ontario (Guelph, Gleneoe and Kemptville) and 40 local mixing locations, the UCO will supply more than 400,000 tonnes of feed to Ontario farmers every year. The UCO is owned by more than 46,000 individuals and 48 member CO-OPs represent- ing another 35,000 members across the province.
