Tobacco
(Continued from Pag* A 34)
slips for the past 3 to 5
years. This past produc
tion history for each
grower is then weighed
against the total produc
tion for that type of to
bacco during the com
parison period. From
this information, a per
centage of total produc
tion for each farm is
calculated. This per
centage of the total pro
ductions then used to
compute each grower’s
production based on the
next year’s projected
need for that type of to
bacco. After this is de
termined, each grower
is given an allotment for
the number of pounds
of tobacco they can
market in the next sea
son. In addition, there is
a way that small or new
growers can get new or
expand the amount of
their allotment. How
ever, quotas would only
be in effect until the
‘Tobacco Settlement”
is completed based on
the proposed legisla
tion. By voting in favor
of quotas. Maryland
and Pennsylvania farm
ers would become part
of what ever financial
settlement is included in
the “Tobacco Settle
ment” for tobacco
growers.
