Tobacco Loan Program-Removal of Requirement That Producers of Burley and Flue Cured Tobacco Designate Sales Locations

Resumo

The Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) proposes to rescind the price support eligibility provision that requires flue-cured tobacco farmers to designate the auction warehouse(s) where they will sell their tobacco and burley tobacco farmers to designate all locations where they will sell their tobacco, both auction warehouse(s) and the central buying points, known as receiving stations, for non-auction sales. Currently price support loans for producers of those kinds of tobacco are available for eligible tobacco only at designated auction warehouses.
