Filler Producers May Lose Quarter Of Market Soon
The report notes a shrinking filler market as cigars demand less tobacco. Last year 62 billion cigars were made with 24 pounds of filler per thousand, down from 26. Processed binder and smaller cigars cut filler needs, while Lancaster County use remains minimal at about 200 000 pounds. G A Biggs of the Pennsylvania Farmers Assn urged members to stay informed.
