The present .basis of the relative prices of serpentine super and normal superphosphates is likely to remain unaltered, according to a statement by Federated Farmers of New Zealand. The Dominion council recently approached the meat and dairy boards and the DirectorGeneral oif Agriculture asking that the price of serpentina should be relueed to the same level as super, but the boards replied that the difference in price is brought about by differences in the cost of production and to bring the prices to the same level would require an extension to serpentine of the present subsidy. That policy neither board considers advisable.
