present marketing conflicts Right approach This is the right kind of approach Hill said in Toronto Wednesday Courts and legislatures can give farmer elected marketing boards authority to implement marketing plans but only farmers can agree on the plans themselves Milk producers and broiler chicken producers have already found this out Last January Ontario and Quebec milk producers agreed to share markets Now they produce milk to fill the markets needs And broiler chicken producers continued Hill met in early July to discuss markets Marketing board representatives from nine provinces
