Abstract

This rule will amend the Commodity Credit Corporation's tobacco marketing quota regulations at 7 CFR part 1464 to require burley tobacco producers to designate where they will sell their tobacco in order to qualify for price support and marketing cards. Currently only flue-cured tobacco producers, as a condition of price- support, must designate where they will market their tobacco. This "Grower Designation Program" is necessary because an increasing percentage of the burley tobacco being grown in the United States is being marketed directly to manufacturers or outside of traditional auction warehouses monitored by the Agency. These amendments will provide warehouse operators, the USDA, Agriculture Marketing Service (AMS) and others more complete and accurate information when planning for a tobacco auction marketing year.
