Abstract
This rule amends regulations that govern tobacco quotas and allotments to allow the transfer by sale of a flue-cured quota in either Georgia or Florida to another farm, for production on that farm, in another county in that State. The Farm Service Agency (the Agency) held a referendum of producers to determine their opinion on the sale of allotments across county lines. Flue-cured producers in Georgia and Florida voted to permit transfers across county lines and this rule implements those results.
