Reason for concern over high assessment in Halton County farms

Halton County farmers warn that rising land assessments threaten farm family incomes. The 1967 Ontario Farm Account Book analysis shows large milk farms with 41 cows yield $3,670 for owner labor and management, about $1.10 per hour, at $111 per acre. If land is valued at $300 per acre, owners would lose 40 rents per hour. Steel operators with 158 steers show $1,158 for labor, risk, and management, 42 cents per hour, at $108 per acre. at $300 per acre they lose 45 cents per hour. Swine farmers show a similar pattern. Farmers argue for lower assessments within provincial and national agricultural programs.
