Leaders of farm groups reached a consensus on a basis for a federal payment formula. The plan would base aid on seeded acreage and production percentage, considering U S and E C subsidies. Western farmers could have received around 900 million of the 1 billion total. The groups aim to replace production with marketing in the formula. Funding not drawn from existing programs is expected after provincial meetings with Wise and Penner. The groups call for long term policies to counter global agricultural subsidies.
