MOST OF THE NEWS ALL THE TIME " ^ zzzz ' A, f~~20 < S/ l MENT TO BE INCREASED j incrt.se of 10 Per Cent Aliowed, But May Cost Growers Money BRIGHT GIVES FIGURES The newly announced ruling of the AAA permits Warren county growers of flue-cured tobacco to increase their allotted production 10 per cent but farmers who take advantage of this privilege of planting niore of the weed are apt to lose money, figures compiled at the office of Bob Bright, county agent, indicate. Mi. Bright said that the matter oi increasing the yield is left entirely up to the farmer, but personally he was of the opinion that those who took advantage of the new ruling would lose money. He came to this conclusion after studying the new ruling from various angles. The new ruling allows growers to produce more pounds of the golden weed, but the more acres that are ' planted in tobacco the lower the parity price sinks, the county agent pointed out. The whole thing f hinges on one question, he said: "Can a farmer raise tobacco for $73.50 per acre?" Mr. Bright, and farmers who were in the court room at the time the new ruling was keing studiel, were of the opinI ion that the cost of producing an ^ acre of tobacco was in excess of this figure. Explaining the situation to a representative of The Warren , Record, Mr. Bright compiled fig. ures showing how the two plans woulc work out from a county-wide standpoint. His figures are as follows: Th(; yield of tobacco in Warren , county is determined from a basis . of 5.T00 acres which, he said, does not change regardless of which plan is adapted. Without taking advantage of the privilege of growing [ more acres of the weed, farmers in this county are permitted ttr-plant ! 4000 icreS. "W'Oth tobacco selling at $125 an acre, the 4000 acres would bring in $500,000. To this amount will be added $29,250 from the rcnta. of 1700 acres at $17.50 per acre. To these figures is added a paritj of $15.60 per acre on 4000 acres which amounts to $62,400. In other words, said Mr. Bright, Warren county farmers should* receive a total of $591,650 without taking advartage of the new plan. Using the same base of 5,700 acres, the increase of 10 per cent means that farmers of Warren can grow 4,500 acres. With tobacco selling at $125 per acre, growers woulc, receive a total of $562,500 from the entire crop of the county. To t lis amount would be added $21,000 from the rental of 1200 acres (the difference between 4,500 acres and 5,700 acres) at $17.50 per acre. The parity on 4,500 acres at $10 per acre amounts to $45,000, bring' ing (he total under the increase in acrefge to $628,500. Thirty-six thousand, eight hundred and fifty dollars is the difference in the total amount of money that will be received from the crop by the two plans. But to get this extra $36,850 farmers will have to grow 500 extra acres of tobacco, showing that if it cost more than $72.53 per acre to grow the weed the .'armer has lost by adopting the new plan. Net only do the figures indicate that it would be a bad thing for a farmer to increase his yield, Mr. Bright said, but if a grower does not take advantage of the new plan, , he lias the privilege of selling this fall from 70 to 80 per cent of his : crop. Stating that the parity drops with the amount sold, Mr. Bright said that it might prove to a farmers advantage to sell only 70 per cent (t his crop in the event the grade is bad. In cases'where farmers iecide to increase their yield, they will not be given the privilege of selling from 70 to 80 per cent, the county agent explained. Mr. Bright said that beginning on May 28th and running; througn May 31st, meetings will be held throughout the county to discuss new ruling of the AAA with farmers.
