PANEL
Continued from page 1 ~
knowledge is effectively used, experts in all fields work toge- ther in a team approach a rea- sonable concensus about social and economic objectives is reached and the farm people are involved in the task.
J.A. Dawson, an economist with the Economic Council of Canada in Ottawa, said greater consolidation of farms in the At- lantic Provinces is. needed. _ “Farms need to be of a sub- stantial size today to provide en- ough. elbow room for the effi. cient use of machinery and equipment, the adoption of ad- vances in technology and in gen- eral to reach reasonable levels
of efficiency. 2
“But in the Atlantic Provinces, the number of farmers leaving agriculture has been just as ra. pid as in other areas, many of the abandoned farms have ap- parently not been consolidated with the farms of those remain- ing in agriculture.” The panelists also included R. K. Fletcher, an APEC economist” from Fredericton, and Dr. W.J. Anderson, director of research with the Agricultural Economics. Research Council of Canada in Ottawa. Mr. Anderson suggested the interest of agriculture -in Can- ada ‘have been secondary _to ‘other national interests and goals” and this has had an ad- verse effect on the sector: Earlier'in the day,’ John R. O’Dea, St. John’s, Nfld., busin. e€ssman and outgoing president of APEC, stressed the need for an “‘overall regional develop- ment scheme.’’ ; : og said ‘‘it is less than ra- onal to suggest that a policy towards: maintaining high ent: ployment in some uneconomic primary sectors for example, would not conflict with and pos- sibly retard one of the major overall economic goals, that of increasing regional productivity and expanding viable self- supporting industrial activities.’
Gilbert Finn, a Moncton. bus- inessman, was elected to suc- ceed Mr. O’Dea as president of APEC. :
