Tobacco use rise could fail to offset 1981 crop drop
The Agriculture Department says rising demand for U S tobacco mainly from exports will not offset 1981's 2.07 billion pound harvest. Consumption may rise to 1.86 billion pounds, exports could fall next year, and 1982 plantings show a 10 percent cut to about 1.86 billion pounds. Domestic use and exports influence carryover stocks and prices despite a smaller crop.
