INCREASED EFFICIENCY.
TO MEET COMPETITION IN STAPLE EXPORTS.
According to the annual report of the Minister of Agriculture which was presented to Parliament to-day, it seems evident that this country must be prepared in Hie near future to meet increasing competition with most of its staple exports on the world’s markets, accompanied, probably, by a lower range of values. “The self reliant course for meeting this position,” states the Minister, “is by increased efficiency at all points, by better farming practice, increased output, higher qualify of produce and lower cost of production, handling, transport and marketing. There is also room for a greatly extended sound cooperative effort along the chain from the producer to the consumer. Well directed scientific research can be of great and far-reaching assistance at all points. We should not presume too much on tin; natural advantages of our country, but should build well and soundly mi the fine foundation they have given us."
