FCC to survey farmers about farm finances The Chairman of Farm Credit Corpora- tion Canada, Jim Hewitt, has announced the Corporation is conducting a national survey of 8500 farmers to gather information on the financial structure of Canadian farms. The survey is being carried out in col- laboratioi'-with Agriculture Canada, Statistics Canada and several provincial governments_ "The it ,lavation obtained from the survey will be instrumental in the develop- ment of agricultural policies across Canada," explained Mr. Hewitt. "The Cor- poration conducted similar surveys in 1981 and 1984, but current data as needed to give us a clear picture of the financial strengths and weaknesses of Canadian farms. As well, the results will permit us to measure the changes that have occurred in the structure of Canadian farms since the beginning of this decade." The survey questions focus on the amount of money borrowed last year, capital invest- ment nvestment during the same period, the size and type td. operation, inventory, farm revenues and expenses, and the financial structure off the enterprise. "I would like to emphasize that individual responses to the questionnaire will remain confidential. We are looking for information on a statistically reliable sample of farmers involved in certain kinds of production or farming in the same region," said Mr. Hewitt. The results of the farm survey will be published in the autumn off 1988.
