asked the Minister for Agricultural if he has satisfied himself that the prices charged to farmers for mixtures used in the feeding of pigs and poultry are not too high considering the prices of their ingredients.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Price of Pigs and Poultry Feeding Stuffs.
Mr. Moylan
I am satisfied that the average price of compound feeding stuffs is not excessive having regard to the prices of the ingredients used. I may add, however, that it would not be feasible to control the prices of the individual compound feeding stuffs, as the proportions of the various ingredients used and the price thereof are subject to frequent changes.
