Saskatchewan minister estimates farm product handling costs
The Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister J G Taggart reports that hogs and pork offals shipped to Britain earned 40.6 million in 1943, with farmers receiving 33.7 million and processing, transport, and marketing claiming about eight percent of sales. He argues grain handling costs at lakehead terminals show a similar percentage, implying efficient, low-cost farm product handling.
