Record $2.3 Billion Tobacco Crop Expected For Growers
The 1976 tobacco crop, though smaller, is forecast to bring a record $2.3 billion to growers as higher auction prices offset reduced production. Flue-cured auctions averaged $1.11 a pound, with burley auctions opening and expected to set new records. U.S. tobacco reserves may rise, and 1977 support prices may rise about 7 percent. Egg production rose 4 percent to 5.4 billion eggs in October.
