HC Deb 25 June 1936 vol 313 cc1957-8
67. Major CARVER

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in view of the importation of hay from Canada, he can state how the price of this imported article compares with that obtained for the home product?

Mr. ELLIOT

During June Canadian hay has been quoted in London at 75s. per ton ex wharf. This figure in fact coincides with the average of quotations for first quality English meadow hay ex rail at North London stations.
