§ Colonel Carverasked the Minister of Agriculture what prospect there is of stimulating the production of pigs and poultry in this country.
Mr. HudsonThe increased production of pigs and poultry is necessarily dependent upon the amount of cereals that can be made available for use as feeding stuffs. Such extra supplies as could be foreseen this winter are already being used for the increased rations allowed for pig and poultry breeding stock from 1st January last. I am not in a position to forecast when supplies will enable any further stimulation of production of these classes of stock to take place.
