Protest price paid for weed in Edgecombe county
In Barboro North Carolina September 3 a mass meeting of Edgecombe county tobacco growers and businessmen formed a boycott of manufactured tobacco products to protest low raw tobacco prices. The group pledged to refuse all manufactured tobacco until fair prices are paid and to cut 1931 acreage by 25 percent. Auction prices opened five to seven cents under last year with most sales at 7 to 9 cents per pound. Buyers allegedly conspired to limit competition amid overproduction and weaker demand in China and India.

North Carolina Bright Leaf Markets Hold Steady As Growers Delay Sales
Tobacco prices on the new bright leaf belt markets of Eastern North Carolina remained near yesterday's eight to nine cent range as growers held back. Offerings were thousands of pounds below last year's second day, with planters delaying sales per trade boards and state guidance. Slightly better quality tobacco arrived at some markets but overall quality was low, influenced by a Tarboro mass meeting that voted to boycott manufactured tobacco and to withhold sales until prices rise.
