Mr. ,Cardiff s>rA. ':krom
,My understanding, no one is
'.beating tin - the door down to buy
:white :beans,. r He said the
advance sales situation
hasn't been. '.resolved, and
likely won't be untillitigation
is over, on 04'1977 crop sale.
if; •disastrous harvest in
1977 meant 'bean growers
were.?a'table to meet advance
sale cominittments made
with ,dealers, .and the situ-
ation is still in the courts..
Bev Hili of Varna asked if
advance sales could be made
with the dealers under the
previous. year's, agreement
With the board.
Mr. Cardiff said there was
nothing in previous agree-
ment to allow advance sales.
Ferg Kelly, a McKillop
Township grower, asked,
Shouldn't the board be in a:.
position to make advance
sales at .any time of the
year?"
Mr. Cardiff told growers.
the board was still carrying
1978 beans at the time of
year advance sales agree-
ments would have been,
made with dealers.. He' again
emphasized -the board didn't
want to jeopardize the 1977'
sales. Also the chairman
said, "It's; hard to, know
whether advance sales are a
good thing or not in, a short
crop year:.
Another grower asked if
the board was going to be
afraid to make advance sales
due to the 1977 crop, adding
he always books some ad-
vance sales with his.. corn
crop.
Mr. Cardiff said the board
had looker! at Vartous'a!syS,
dealing with advance, Saleat
but hadn't eotne up, with. ,a
way of making them, without'
guarantees.
When Mr. Kelly wait it,
almost' seemed like the deal-
ers were using blackmailin-
their negottatiens with the
board and. ,prodsicers. M.
Cardiff replied, "just how.
you would bring pressure .t0,
make titan sign on the
dotted' cine, 'I don't know."
Another grower ,asked if
the board :could, negotiate
with the dealers individually,
Mr. Cardiff said it ,Mild if
the dealers: wanted to do
that, but to date the Ontario.
White Bean Dealers Assort-,
ation has always negotiated:
with the board asa group,
John liaslitt, who was
chairing the meeting and
George Sitter, the board's
fambton County director,
both expressed concern that
even the two farmer -owned
co-ops in, the bean business.
were working against the
board. Mr,. Sitter said the.
co-ops "negotiate in, the very.
same style as private busi-
nese* which always dis-
appoints him.
Charles Broadwell', man-
ager of
the C BPMB, told
growers they must be careful
when talking about advance
sales. He told growers some
years:. we were winners and
some years we were not."
For example, in 1971, the
average advance sale price
was 510,63 per cwt. and the
regular sale price was 513.69
In 1976, theadvance pay-
ment was., 521,58 per cwt.
and the regular payment was
$f8,8,7 per cwt. Mr, Broad-
well pointed out there is a
variance in prices and that it
could argued whether ad
Rance sales were or were, net,
an advantage:
Thi board manager report-
get .a, growing market for'
yellow -eye .beans. • if pro-
ducers could ever grow
diem; He said there 'have
been more disasters weath-
erwise with these beans than
there have been with, ,the.
white beans..
Mr; Broadwell :told grow-
ers the food aid plan will no
longe!. accept either yellow
eye beans or split or No. 4
white beans.
He said to date about
585,027 cwt. of yellow -eye
beams, have been sold, in the
$12 .te 535.price range, He
said Green Giant is canning
these beans locally and they
are in demand in the package
trade Also, he said the
beans'have provedpopular in
the Maritimes and Mr.
Broadwell; said he thought'
current production of the
beanscould be doubled, with
their sale;, potential.
The board: ,manager repor-
ted with a good harvest of
white beans in Michigan this
Year - the second highest'
yield in the crop's history in
that state . and with the good
Yields locally, there are a
"few more beans around;
than required to meet the
demand."
In reporting on selling
trips to the United Kingdom,
the manager said the third
Smedley canning plant re-
cently closed in Britain.
However, the Heinz com
Pa -OX is again spending a
large sumprompting the sale,
of Canned ibeans in the U.K.,,
.including a new curried bean
product.,
Mr- Broadwell said Britain
facing a 13 per cent . g.
}enation, rate and are talking
reeessienin, the future- i.e
added,- "The United King=
dom is our biggest market
and Heinz has been .our
biggest customer."
The manager told: the
growers by the end of Dec-
ember "'we will be almost out.
of the bank in terms of
borrowing; :He said this will
put the board in a stronger
position in terms, of the
market.
Phil Durand again raised
the issue of advance sales,.
and asked about the possibil-
ity there might have been
good advance sale; prices: in
the last two years.
Mr. Broadwell said dealers
interested in buying in that
position in 1979 simply
bought the 1978' crop of
beans. He said the board has
beenand is investigating
advance sale possibilities,
but these are dependent on
litigation.
In response to. another
question, Mr. Broadwell told.
producers the average yield
in Ontario was about 1600
pounds of white beans per
aere. compared to about 1400
pounds in the U.S.
He said; the top selling
price for the 1979 crop so far
was about $29, and the
average price was about
$24.90 per. cwt.
Gordon Hill, speaking asa

f Rights
farmer
A dramatic new approach
is needed to protect armers
in their way of farming was;
the sentiment expressed at
the OFA convention, held in •
Toronto. Last week.
It was felt that the Code of
Practice should be replaced
with a Code of Rights for
farmers - to provide positive
protection of a farmers right
to farm.
The Code of Practice,
originally intended to be
merely a guideline for
municipalities, has now
become a "must" It is being
instituted in official plans as
well as zoning by=laws: It has
become both a written and
unwritten : law across
Ontario,.
• The Code of Practice has
failed' the Ontario. farmer
those at the convention
said. It has not come to grips,
with the number of non
farms uses already in rural
Ontario. It has impact on new
houses,new • barns and
additions to barns: that will
be built from here on. It does
not conic to, grips, with the
present harassment and;
limitations put on farmers
There is a fear that the Code.,
of Practice could expand ,to
include noise allowances, use
of pesticides •and erosion
control; it could effect every
single thing a farmer does.
Farmers are told to pre-
serve land, yet municipalities
are allowed to grow toward'.
farmers; farmers are not
allowed to expand their live-
stock operations in proximity,
to built up areas:.
The OFA convention
decided first thing that needs
to be done isto move away
from negative controls on
farmers to . a positive pro
tection of a farmer's right to
farm.
The discussion paper at
the OFA convention pro
posed a provincial Code of
Rights - a bill of rights that t,
will be permissive rather
than restrictive for the
farmer, • it stated that, *agri-
culture should be considered'.
as the primary industry in
the agricultural areas and all '
non-farm uses should be
secondary to that. it should
protect the agriculturai
industry and stop non-farm
uses in an agricultural area
from restricting agricultural
