Md. tobacco exports strong in 1976
ANNAPOLIS, Md. -
Exports of Maryland Type
-32 tobacco more than
doubled in 1976 according to
a government report.
Looking at long term
trends, the 1976 export
figures got Maryland
tobacco about up to its 1969-
1973 averages of 10.3 million
pounds per year, worth $lO
million.
Maryland Secretary of
Agriculture Young D.
Hance, who has grown up
with tobacco, commented on
1976’s export figures for the
prized leaf saying, “I hope
this is a good sign. The
poundage increases indicate
foreign buyers are returning
to the market, and this, I
hope, will continue this year
for the 1976 crop.”
“As any grower knows,
export interrat in Maryland
tobacco is a key to the price
they will receive, and
tobacco, particularly Type
-32, is an expensive crop to
raise.”
“We have a good crop to
sell this year, about 28
million pounds. The quality
looks good but some growers
