SThe Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, May 24, 1978 Section Two AgyriculItur l rNews By Rod Stork, Assoc. Agricultural Respresentative Pesticide Use Survey In a recent news release from the Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, the Hon. William Newman, it was announced that 8,800 farmers in Ontario have been asked to participate in a survey of pesticide use in the province. The survey is required every five years under the Great Lakes Water Qnality Agreement of the Canada- United States International Joint Commission to determine the amount of polîntants, including agicultural chemicals in the Great Lakes basin. Chemicals to be surveyed include those applîed te control weeds, insects, mites, nematodes, nodents and fungi.. ln making the announce- ment, Mr. Newman said the information will, aiso, be useful to Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food staff in detect- ing trends of pesticide use in gauging the effectiveness of our extension work in pesti- cide control. Record forms have been mailed to 8,000 field crop farmers and 800 fruit and vegetable growers, who have been asked to record the crops sprayed, the amount and kind of pesticide used, and the acreage to which it wvas applied in 1978. In the faîl, participants will receive questionnaires in which they will be asked to summarize the information recorded over the summer. If you are one of the farmers who received these questionnaires, we wonld urge you to complete them, during the summer months, and in the fal complete the snmmary information as well. It is very important that we get an accurate reading of the amount of pesticide usage, so that it can be shown that pesticides that are being applied by farmers are being nsed in a'safe and economical manner. As manv farmers know. the International Joint Commis- sion has aiso been heading up a study entitled, the "PLUARC STUDY", which refers to Pollution from Land Use Activities Group. This, stndy has been carried out across the province of Ontario and a sýeries of meetings were held last year to discuss the resuits from the study. The Durham Region Federation of Agriculture had representa- tives from the Pluarg at their meet"ing held on Tnesday, May 2rin Uxbridge. A good deal of discussion took place on the a or n pollution that is present i the Great, Laktes andl how Land Use Activity on our farms, including applica- tioný of fertilizers and chemicals is increasing, or lessening the amount of pollution in the Great Lakes. Again, we would urge farmers who received these questionnaires regarding pesticide usage in the mail to complete them during the summer months because it could be very important information for everyone concerned with agriculture in the years to corne. Home Economies Footnotes By Linda Caldwell, Home Economist With so many cuts of meat to choose from, it may be confusing to know how to cook a particular cut.' Read the label, It indicates important and useful information. The label will indicate either the primal naine, referring to the area from which the cut was taken, or the secondary naine, describing the cuts within each primaI group, or both. Let's examine beef cuts. Beef leuts from the chuck (shoulder) area include chuck short nib, blade, chuck cross- cut nib and shoulder roasts, neck meat and blade steaks. Thèse are medium to less- tendercuts. From the nib and loin area corne nb roasts and steaks, wing, T-bone, porter- house, sirloin and filet steaks. These cuts are all tender. Moving along the back of the carcass to the hip, cuts incînde round steaks and roasts, rump and sirloin tip. These are all medinm-tender cuts. Sections such as the shank, brisket, plate and Flank corne from the underside of the carcass. The muscles in these areas have been more active, resulting in less tender cuts of beef. By knowing the basic areas from which cuts are taken, you can determine if the cuts are tender, medinm tender, or less tender. Use dry heat methods sncb as roastîng, frying, broiling or barbecuing for tender cuts and dry or moist héat methods such as braising, stewing or pot roast- ing for Jess tender ouf e Read mneat labels carefnlly.
