PARADISE TOBACCO AUCTION IS BACK!
It is a year that we expect an intense demand for all your tobac
cos. You farmers are in the drivers seat this year. YOU will be the
ones to determine market prices!! How quickly you sell on the farm
will determine market price! Paradise will keep you informed of
market info each week in this Lancaster Farming space.
People from all parts of the country have been here to inquire
about how much tobacco we will have in the market place. We have
already sent out a lot of good samples representing a quality crop.
We finally have gotten a sound committment from a large tobacco
company to follow your auction. Your dream has come true and you
will be rewarded for your support of the tobacco auction system.
Paradise continues to work to put PA grown tobacco on the map.
Remember, Maryland tobacco auction went 5 years before attract
ing tobacco companies to their market. We have gone through 4
years now, and see light at the end of the tunnel.
The tobacco auction system stands stronger among farmers and
buyers than it ever has - NO MATTER WHATEVER ANYBODY
TELLS YOU!!
After last year you should respect the auction system and its
IMPACT!! You need to have enough confidence in the tobacco auc
tion system to wait until it opens before you sell either type of tobac
co!! This could be a year of the greatest demand you have seen for
both type 41 and 609 tobacco - and Paradise expects to make a
market in both types. Brace yourself hard for buyers coming out
early to the farm to buy this crop before auction opens and the big
new tobacco company arrives - YOU MAY BE TEMPTED BY BIG
PRICES!! Don’t forget the auction in a good year - remember when
you wanted us in the tough years?
FOCUS ON PARADISE - We have become PA’s tobacco market
ing center. The auction system can survive - but it soley depends on
you, “The Tobacco Farmer” - to support it and make it work!!!
AGAIN - YOU WILL BE TEMPTED BY BIG PRICES BEFORE
AUCTION OPENS BUT BE STRONG - AUCTION WILL WORK TO
MAKE THEM BIGGER! Remember, we will sell both types of
tobacco.
For Sale: 3 Compartment
bale boxes with either hydraulic
or hand jacks; Cotton baling
twine, we can ship UPS.
