This book was released on 1985 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors were instructed to determine a method of payment of the Crow Benefit that "would be most conducive to agricultural development in Canada," taking into account resource neutrality, equity, efficiency and administrative feasibility, and considering impacts of any method of payment on the grainhandling and transportation system in western Canada. Using research, received submissions and consultations with representative interests groups, the Committee reviewed the advantages of all of the methods of payment that have been proposed, both throughout and since the Gilson round of consultations prior to the enactment of the WGTA. Seven specific recommendations for a new method of payment are made.

Book Christmas Turkey Or Prairie Vulture

Download or read book Christmas Turkey Or Prairie Vulture written by David R. Harvey and published by IRPP. This book was released on 1980 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword: Dr. Harvey deals with one of the oldest problems of the Prairie provinces: the carriage of grain to world markets efficiently and at low cost to the producer...The problem is how to reform the system without injury to the Prairie economy and unfairness to the producers. Dr. Harvey argues that a change in system is indeed possible, with benefit to grain producers, to the agricultural economy of the West, to the taxpayers of Canada - and possibly even to the railways. He recognizes that compensation must be paid to grain producers if freight rates for the movement of grain are increased to an economic level. He proposes a method of compensation that, he thinks, will permit economic forces to produce a net benefit to western agriculture, and will result in an increase in Pairie income and a diversification of the western economy.

Book Impacts of a Change in the Method of Payment of the Crow Benefit

Download or read book Impacts of a Change in the Method of Payment of the Crow Benefit written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report addresses the changes in the types and volumes of secondary processing which would occur as a result of changes in freight costs paid by the producer due to introducing the pay-the-producer method of payment. The processing industry is defined as the manufactured livestock feed and the food and beverage processing sectors. Each industry is examined to determine the likely direction and magnitude of change as a result of a change in the method of payment, with particular emphasis on livestock processing and oilseed crushing. The various industries are analyzed for volume and value of output market opportunities and constraints, existing and future capacities, and current employment levels under 2 policy options. The methodology includes a literature review, the formulation and testing of likely scenarios, and the analysis of the resulting information for the processing sector, the transportation and handling sector, rural communities, and the Canadian Wheat Board.

Book Impact of the Crow Rate and Western Grain Transportation Act on Western Canadian Grain Production

Download or read book Impact of the Crow Rate and Western Grain Transportation Act on Western Canadian Grain Production written by Changjing Xu and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crow's Nest Pass Agreement (introduced in 1897) and its successor, the Western Grain Transportation Act (WGTA) (introduced in 1984) are the transport programs designed specifically for agriculture. These Acts are the major agricultural programs affecting western Canadian agriculture in terms of monetary transfers made to Prairie farmers over the period of 1950-87. The impact of the Crow/WGTA and issue of changing method of payment has been widely studied. However previous studies on the grain production impact of Crow/WGTA either reached conclusions without any supporting empirical evidence or on the basis of inappropriate empirical studies in terms of methodologies. This thesis attempts to simulate the production effect of removal of Crow/WGTA through a better defined econometric model for the western grain sector. The objectives of the thesis are to simulate the short-run and long-run possible economic impacts of Crow/WGTA on the western Canadian grain sector and to draw policy implications from the empirical findings. These objectives are accomplished by simulating the econometric model for the grain sector. The thesis begins with a brief review of historical and current major issues of Crow/WGTA and the current methodological problems with supply response models as used in related studies. This is followed by a theoretical discussion of the impact of Crow/WGTA subsidies and changing the method of payment. Subsequently, the econometric model and key econometric results used in simulation of the study are described. The study then focuses on simulating the possible production impact of complete removal of Crow/WGTA on western grain production during the period of 1960-87. Finally, the simulation results of the study are reported and discussed. The main conclusion from the analysis is that the Crow/WGTA does cause resource misallocation in western Canadian grain production although the effect is relatively small. The impact of removal of Crow/WGTA on grain production differs by time frame. Wheat production would experience a decrease in all three time frame. Production of barley, rapeseed and other crops (flax, rye and oats) would increase in the long-run with rapeseed experiencing the largest increase. Increases in barley and rapeseed production would be relatively minor. Results also suggest that all crops could be adjusted to long run equilibrium levels in a relatively short time frame.
