Review of Agriculture in the Durham area Ads GM recalling 1450 workers to resume two shifts General Motors of Canada mmounced last week that they are recalling 1450 Oshawa workers who have been on indefinite layoff. Some one-third of the 1450 will be recalled immediately with the remainder over the ■eut forty days. The company is going back 10 two shifts at the A-line . esàernbly plant which was reduced to one shift in april Of 1982. Poor sales of Chevrolet Celebrity and Pontiac 6000 had moved the company to Close out one shift in April. The two shifts will be in full operation as of February 14th. Further to the recall General Motors has cancelled layoffs which were scheduled this month for 252 workers in Oshawa and workers in St, Catherines and Windsor. Upon completion of the recall GM will booster production production oif the line to 720 vehicles per day compared to the present 360. The company said the move results from increased demand in the United States and Canada. » By: Rod Stork, Acting Agricultural Representative 1982 IN REVIEW: The year, 1982, will not be remembered fondly by many people, including including farmers. In addition to very unpredictable and unusual weather conditions, 1 farmers were faced with low commodity prices for many products, extremely high interest interest rates, especially in the first two-thirds of the years, and continued high input costs for such things as fuel, « crop inputs and 1 other areas. Despite a growing season that had many ups and downs, yields of most crops across the areas were only slightly below average' for some crops while most of the others were average or better in yield. Quality of most of our crops was good except for born. In the case of. the field corn there were many acres of late corn, which is of basically poor quality. The biggest concern that farmers had in 1982 and will continue to have in 19.83 is 1 that of low product prices for such things as grain, beef, potatoes, corn, soybeans and other commodities. We have substantial surpluses of grains in the world combined with the overall poor economic conditions, it means that traditional export markets are not very good. The recent drops in interest rates have been a welcome relief to farmers. The need at the moment and over the next while in my opinion is for interest interest rate stability. In this way farmers can sit down and make a more accurate projec- . tion for the upcoming production production year. Recent information indicates indicates that 1983 will probably probably be another difficult year for farmers. Projected , f-irm income shows a (Continued from page 11) decrease while farm expenses are projected to increase compared to 1982. For individual individual farmers, this means continued pressure in 1983. The need for sound management management decisions, limited capital expansion, debt consolidation consolidation and other alternatives alternatives will be more impor- - tant than ever before. Even with this kind of planning, however, farmers will be faced with difficult decisions in 1983. Everyone involved in the agricultural industry including the consumer consumer has a stake in what happens in the agricultural sector. The importance of a strong agriculture cannot be overemphasized.

IN MEMORIAM VOGELS - In memory of a dear friend, Anthony Joseph who sadly left us on January 10th 1982. Though his smile is gone forever, And his hand we cannot touch, Still we have so many memories, Of the tine we miss so much, He never said good-bye to us, Though perhaps it's just as well, How could we of ever said good-bye, To the friend we loved so well. Always in our fondest memories. 12, pd. DEATH NOTICE JONAH, George Irwin - died suddenly at Bowman- , ville Memorial Hospital on Thursday, December 30, 1982.
