ATT
hold your Type 609 tobacco until the auction opened, brought the market prices I
X of your Type 609 tobacco to acceptable market prices. It is our opinion that the ;
I Type 41 tobacco market prices were acceptable on TOP quality Type 41 tobacco, f
* It is up to you f armers to decide what to plant next year! f
I We feel that demand will be here for Type 609 tobacco; however, it is important jj
f to remember that demand is strongest in December and January and quality will I
Jbe very important. We feel that demand will continue to exist for Type 609 largejy x
due to lower support prices in the Burley markets. We also feel that there will jj
continue to be a demand for local Type 41 tobacco. Quality again will be very I
x important. Hopefully we have stimulated more demand tor this type of leaf X
I through the work of various southern buyers. 2
x We have already begun to prepare for next years tobacco marketing season. We I
| will do everything we can this year to create more demand in our locally grown *
I tobacco leaf. We will also be working and supporting various publications in 1
X Lancaster Farming providing information on planting, growing, harvesting, & I
2 marketing your tobacco. *
I We will continue to have phone hours to answer any questions you may have on I
