asked the Minister for Agriculture when he intends to fix the price for wheat for next season.

I hope to announce shortly the price for wheat of the 1964 harvest.
The Minister is no doubt aware that some farmers are unable to get the acreage they would desire. Would he indicate to the House if that set of circumstances will be altered and if it will be possible for the majority of farmers to get the increased acreage they desire?
I am sure the company responsible for these matters will do their best for every grower. They cannot do better than their best.
In other words, there will be a bigger acreage available?
I do not know how you might decide to interpret my words, but they are there.
Unfortunately, the Minister has not answered the question, and it is very difficult to interpret his words.
