Agriculture spending to rise by 3.7 million in Manitoba plan
Agriculture Minister Jim Downey released estimates showing a proposed provincial spend of about 33.9 million for the coming year, an increase of 3.7 million over last year. The plan focuses on livestock management and production, market development, Agri-Water resource management, and extension services, with efforts to expand national stabilization programs and a livestock identification program. Farmers face drought concerns, crop insurance deadlines, high interest rates, and calls for continued lender support as Manitoba revenue from farm cash receipts is projected at a record 1.3 billion for 1979.

A minimum purse support of 835000 is planned, based on 1.75 percent of part mutual wagering, with funds to be drawn from provincial assistance after a April 18 HBPA decision halted entries.
