Leaf Growers Protest
Proposed Legislation

By PHIL CAMPBELL |
Commissioner of Agriculiure



Georgia tobacco farmers have over-
whelmingly condemned proposed legisla-

tion that would change the system of con- .

trolling leaf production. And their cries of







disapproval have been backed by similar

expressions from Florida growers.

At recent hearings in Georgia and Flor-
ida, tobacco growers, in no uncertain
terms, let it be known just how they felt

| about the proposal.

At the same time many prowl: in
the Carolinas endorsed the new proposal,
evidently because many of these growers
have, through the production of off-grade
tobaccos, helped create a tobacco surplus
problem.

Under the proposal a countys average
tobacco yield would be established and the
individual farmer would be given a
poundage figure depending on his past
production record.

The farmer would be allowed to sell

all tobacco produced on the acreage re-.

gardless of his poundage figure. If he ex-
ceeded this figure, however, he would be
required to take a cut in acreage and
poundage for the next year. If he did not
come up to his poundage figure, regard-
less of the reason, he would be given ad-
ditional acreage and poundage to allow
him to produce more the next year,

The growers say it would mean a pen-

_ alty and loss of acreage for the good to-

bacco grower who has been increasing
production per acre and an increase in
acreage for the less efficient farmers who
do not meet their production figures.

Many Georgia growers point out that
such a program would have a tendency to
destroy individual initiative and com-
pletely scuttle years of research aimed at
increased production and increasing prof-
its per acre.

Georgia and Florida producers stated
sueh a program would be most favorable
to the Carolina grower who has been pro-
ducing off-grade tobaccos that turn out

big yields. Their production history would
