The establish- ment of mnon-incentive floor prices based on a known formula as set out by CFA policy for farm products. "Povincial Government; We ask that assurance be given to Ontario farmers that there will be an improvement in the administration of the provinces agricultural marketing legislation. To achieve this improvement we request a new Portfolio--A Marketing and Co-operation Department be establizh- ed in the near future with emphasis not on production but on 'Marketing'. "In order to make it practical and democratically ; possible to secure an expression of opinion from our pro- ducers in any one commodity, we re- quest a new formula and system for taking exaluation of producer opinion by a marketing vote." The meeting then recommended to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and the commodity groups to take action on a salesmanship program by which . Ontario Commodity groups, through salesmen, would sell farm products on world markets; establish- ment of a marketing department in the O.F.A. which in co-operation with the éommodity groups could develop stemming this a progressive and master marketing program; to seek ways and means of increasing research in the field of marketing, so that a pool of 'informa- tion on the 'subject of "Commodity Marketing" may be made available to our farm leaders as they push foy- ward our marketing programs; to press our universities, colleges, and Department of Education to recognize our needs in respect to trained men equipped to assist us in giving fur- ther momentum to our marketing pro- grams; to ask the Federal Government to establish a "granary program" in- volving outright purchases of suffi- cent western grains to lessen the dan- ger of western. farmers marketing their unsold grain through hogs and other livestock. Grain s a more easi- ly stored commodity than meat; while not delaying action on our resolutions here for such a meeting we urge that a National Commodity Conference be called in the near future to consider the points raised at this provincial conference and to take action; and {that farm people be urged to use the co-perative way to help solve their current econmic distress.
