Burley Tobacco Plan May Stabilize Local Prices
Lucien Beckner of Winchester Ky, secretary of the Burley branch of the American Society of Equity in Kentucky, reports that pledging tobacco to the Equity Society has kept advance payments near 50 percent of current values. He shares a farmer’s example where a pledged crop appraised at 82 dollars yielded 41 dollars in advances, illustrating how the system protects growers from ruin, expands organized participation across forty counties in Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana, and garners bank support nationwide.
