Boost To Put 200 Million Into Pockets Of Farmers
Agriculture officials estimate nearly 200 million dollars will reach prairie wheat farmers. An added 20 cent per bushel on 1945 1946 1947 deliveries and a 1.35 dollar base shift to 1.55 dollars per bushel under a new plan will dole out payments across roughly 200 000 farmers. About 16 million goes to farmers in 3 000 townships hit by crop fails, funded by the Prairie Farms Assistance Pool. The Canadian Wheat Board funds the 20 cent per bushel rise from pool revenues while Britain US and other buyers buy wheat at varying prices. Dominion officials warn the pool may be larger than 200 million but not to drain it dry as talks begin at the agriculture conference. Potential US market impact and price dynamics are discussed amid steady support for UK agreements. The Lethbridge division notes Western wheat yields roughly 10% of the annual crop, implying around 20 million in bonuses for local growers early next year.
