Oshawa-Durham F By John E. Finlay, Agricultural Representative EIGHT AGRICULTURAL COMMODITIES DESIGNATED FOR SUPPORT Agriculture Minister, Eugene Whelan has announced a $66.8 million stabilization program for eight agricultural commodities commodities designated for support under the Agricultural Stabilization Stabilization Act (ASA). The designated commodities commodities are the 1982-83 crops of winter wheat, apples, greenhouse cucumbers, onions, carrots, cabbages (Eastern Canada), rutabagas (Eastern Canada and Manitoba) and white beans. Except for winter wheat, the support levels for the other designated commodities have been established at 90 per cent of the previous five year market return average,, indexed to reflect changes in cash costs of production during that period. The deficiency payments represent the difference between between the support level and the average market return for the 1982-83 marketing year. The sudden emergence of vomitoxin in 1981 and 1982 depressed prices well below the normal price spread expected in relation to Western Canada hard wheat prices. This lowered the five- year-average price on which the support price is derived. As a result, producers were forced out of their traditional markets and faced substantially higher costs in disposing of their crops. Accordingly the support for this commodity has been set at 100 per cent. About 10,000 producers will receive a deficiency payment of $34.17 per tonne, for a total payout of $10.8 million. APPLES 1982-83 The 1982 apple crop faced heavy international competition competition from abundant harvest in most major apple growing areas of the world. Apples are very important as a source of farm cash receipts in British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, parts of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The market weakness in both fresh and juice varieties affected all apple-growing regions in Canada. There will be a deficiency deficiency payment of 4.63 cents per kilogram to more than 3,500 producers for a total cost of $21.2 million. GREENHOUSE CUCUMBERS 1982 This crop, grown in late winter for the spring fresh market in Canada, , has suffered substantially from increases in energy prices. They will receive a deficiency payment of $1.42 per dozen for a total program cost of $4.3 million. ONIONS 1982-83 About 500 • Canadian producers grow onions in British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec and Manitoba for both the domestic and export markets. Producers will receive a deficiency payment of 0.86 cents per kilogram for a total payout of $1.2 million. CARROTS 1982-83 A large crop, as well as rapidly rising input costs, have placed severe pressure on this growing industry. Deficiency payments for carrots are established at 1.65 cents per kilogram for a total payout of $4.7 million. CABBAGE (Eastern Canada) i 982-83 The competition from imports and the rising costs of production put financial pressure on producers in 1982. The deficiency payments for cabbage will be 1.41 cents per kilogram for a total of $2 million. RUTABAGA (Eastern Canada and Manitoba) 1982-83 Rutabaga producers experi-i enced low prices in Eastern Canada and Manitoba even though prices in other western provinces were strong enough not to warrant a payment. About 700 producers in Eastern Canada, with 400 in Quebec and 150 in Ontario, will receive a deficiency payment of 0.66 cents per kilogram. The total payout for rutabagas will be $0.6 million. WHITE BEANS 1982-83 About 3,000 white bean producers, mainly in southwestern Ontario faced depressed prices because of import pressure from the large U.S. crop. Large plantings of winter wheat were converted to other crops, including white beans, because of the very poor conditions for the winter wheat crop in early spring last year. The deficiency payment will be $275.16 per tonne, for a total payment of $22 million. Payments will be mailed directly to winter wheat and white bean producers in Ontario based on information provided by producer marketing boards for the commodities. For all other claim forms will ...u;..,, directly to them in early January. Application forms will also be available from pi*./ViilC t uii^. agricultural offices or from the Agricultural Stabilization, Board, 930 Carling Ave., Ottawa, Ontario. KlA 0C5.
