Closing shocks farmers The announcement that Canada Packers would close its Burl- ington "Tenderlean' plant has sent a shock wave through the cattle industry. The name Canada Packers has been synonymous with meat packing and processing in Ontario through most of this century. Following the closing of fojur otlier major processing / facilities this year, the closing of the Burlington plant has shaken the confidence of cattlemen because of its long and close rela- tionship to cattlemen and cattl feeding. Jim Magee, President of the Ontario Cattlemen's Association said "'Cattlemen throughout the province are very disappointed SOME FACTS "about your COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER DID YOU KNOW? ~ * Community newpapers remain in the home a long time - for example, almost 60% keep their newspaper for a full week or more. * Long issue life of the community newspaper translates into 2.4 exposers per issue for your | advertising message.

The closing of the plant, like four others earlier this year, is a symptom of a much deeper pro- blem - industry competitiveness. It is a problem which our Associa- tion has talked about in our 'Blueprint For The Future' and which we have recently discuss- ed with the Hon. David Ramsay. We are in a highly competitive dynamic industry throughout North America. Cattle feeders need meat processors and meat processors need cattle feeders. Here in Ontario, cattle feeding has been migrating to Alberta and Saskatchewan and part of the reason is government programs which create a disincentive to feeding livestock in Ontario. The Ontario livestock feeding sector is land based, or in other words, the farming operation feeds the crops grown on its land base to livestock. Ggains fed to livestock are not eligible to par- ticipate in federal stabilization programs and grain silage crops have not been eligible for federal ad hoc payments under the Special Canadian Grains Program. David Whittington, OCA Vice President and a member of the OCA Blueprint Committee stated "Since the mid 1980's the Ontario been discriminated against because of grains support programs. We have seen prairie provincial governments bring in provincial programs to offset the negative impact of the federal transporta- tion subsidy on grain at a time when grain prices are already at record lows. And after three years of lobbying for equitable treatment of home grown grains fed to livestock here in Ontario, our provincial and federal governments have failed to act. No matter how competitive we are in the cattle production business here in Ontario we can- not compete with treasuries from other provinces. What we are see- ing in Ontario with processing plant closures this year is the fruit of government inaction." Jim Magee concluded 'The distortions from grain support programs have been with us for three years. The closing of the Tenderlean plant tears away a highly visible part of the in- frastructure necessary to main- tain a viable livestock feeding sector and has created a crisis of confidence in the livestock feeding industry. And what makes it even more ironic is that publi¢ attention and government priority today is being directed at 'sustainable agriculture' and the land based integrated cropp- ing/livestock operation is the ultimate model of 'sustainablility' in agricujture. iv ws ye i at a ata i A 2 ih a CS iG ail i © a Sak Suan Sl dass Galli SB Sa
