Tobacco Prices Rise and Outlook Brightens for Growers
The Connecticut and Housatonic valley tobacco market tightens as prices jump 3 to 8 cents per pound over two weeks. Crops cure well with most sales at 18 to 30 cents per pound, and a sale at 35 cents is noted. A New England Homestead inquiry suggests the 1890 domestic crop is undersupplied for wrappers, prompting promises of profitability if 1891 wrappers meet demand. Domestic growers may need 50 percent more wrapper leaf and a 25 percent acreage increase, with Sumatra wrappers priced around 3.40 per pound. Continued price gains depend on the final wrapper supply and broader regional crops.
