Export ban hurts Western barley growers in Canada
A telegram to Prime Minister King from Line Elevator Companies protests a Dominion Feeds Administrator order banning barley exports to the United States. The policy, they say, forces Western farmers to supply cheap feed to Eastern Canada and BC feeders, penalizing Western barley 40 cents per bushel for feed use and leaving making barley unadjusted, while U.S. prices remain higher for feed and making barley. The result is reduced Western access to American markets and shifted farming incentives toward alternative crops.
