This is ( another way of saying that the 1: major aim of the Canadian ‘3 Federation of Agriculture is parity for the farmerâ€"parityl' of income and standard of liv-‘i ing and status in our national; economy. All the policies and ;‘ programmes of the Federationfi in the economic field, are de-l signed to help achieve this par- .1 ity objective. i I am using “parity” now as| a word to describe a fair in-. come position for farmersâ€"and _ I am suggesting that achieve-‘: ment of parity of income will require advances on many fronts and by means of many‘ types of policies. ‘ Let. us dis-i tinguish clearly between'a pro-: gramme aimed at parity as I? am describing it now on the? one hand,‘ nad a support pr~o-. gramme based on a statistical‘ price formula that gives usE measuring sticks for carryingi .on a policy of price supports} The two are by no means the:‘ same thing although a pricel support programme IS an 1m-1 portant part of any body of} policy aimed at parity income} for the farmer. A little later I am going to talk about the price support programme which thé C.F.A. has developed, us- ing a formula for arriving at support prices. s. I would like to call your at- tention to the fact that many governments have adopted pro- grammes aimed at giving the farmer a parity income, or parity prices on individual commoditiesâ€"though t 11 e v might not use that word.

Approximately 1100 editors and writers are em- ployed in news gathering and editing for CBC radio and TV lnewseaSts. Having got this far, two ques- tions immediately face us. The first is how do you measure parity? The second is, by what method or methods- can eré-mm.§§rr§rr§r§errrgggrrrc‘rré Firstâ€"how do you measure (3 parity? The method that the; Canadian Federation of Agri-L 'culture endorses it to use‘ i prices as a measure and a,t‘ guide. Using prices has sever-1 3 al advantages. The calcula-l'f tions involved are fairly simple. 3 1] {In addition it is posible to ar-"J ‘ll\'e at parity prices for in-| dvidual commodities as a guide ‘1‘? to the position of different sec-i} tors of the industry and as ail guide to the setting of price 5 supports. The principle in- ( volved in calculating parity ‘7 prices is this! You first choose‘iI some period in the past when'] agriculture’s position in thei] economy was reasonably fav.l curableâ€"reasonably in balance. ‘ l I You then say that to be at par- ity prices of farm products should :have the same purchas-. in‘g power in terms of things:4 the farmers buy as they had in 3 that base period. Basically,‘- this is all there is to the calcu-I lation of parity prices. In criti-i cism of such calculations many, ‘ people say that because the‘ ability of the farmer to pro-. duce more with the same land' Iand labour has increased over' 3the years, it is not reasonable: : to expect that the prices of his L products should have the same " purchasing power as they didi in the period in the past which 1 ’ you have chosen as your base.1 The ansxTVer to this is, of courset that a similar increase in pro-, ductivity has taken place in other, none-farm, parts of our economy, and the two cancel‘ 1 out. , l 1 1 '4'71 (1) we achieve it? ‘Manvers. . .
