Growers Guide 2010-2011 Tobacco Farm Quarterly 3
In a conversation I had not long ago with a tobacco
grower, he said farmers were the ultimate gam-
blers, putting everything on the line each year with
the belief they could best the elements and produce
crops that would translate to financial success. Its
hard to argue with that line of thinking.
For t obacco f ar mer s, t her e i s cer t ai nl y t he
potential for a solid payoff at the end, and pre-
season contracts from buyers help alleviate much
of the consternation for those fortunate enough
to get them. However, given the volatility of the
industrybetween the federal government trying
to oversee it, taxes, smoking bans, foreign com-
petition, weather and everything elseit does get
more and more difficult each year for the average
tobacco grower to ante up. Large tobacco farms
have two significant advantages in that they are
more likely to be able to renew contracts each year
and they can better afford to invest in equipment
and infrastructure that make the operation more
efficient and cheaper to run.
For smal l er farms, however, t he deci si on t o
invest in new equipment can be difficult. Its hard
enough to decide to make major purchases like
replacing equipment or adding extra barns even if
you are sure youll still be in the crop five years
down the road. Unfortunately, more and more the
question is not Do we make this major purchase
or go with what we have? its Do we make this
major purchase or do we just get out of tobacco
altogether? And that decision gets a little more
difficult each year as farm owners get older.
One survey says t he average age of t obacco
growers today is 56 years old. In the conventional
job market, thats only nine years away from when
most people traditionally retire. While most farm-
ers dont just pick up and move to Florida to play
shuffleboard when they turn 65, as they get older
the thought of long-term personal financial security
does have to weigh on any substantial farm invest-
ment.
The good news is that tobacco farmers are a
steadfast group, most of whom have worked the
crop t hei r ent i re l i ves and are deepl y passi on-
ate about it. That devotion is what keeps so many
in the business and is absolutely essential to the
Amer i can t obacco i ndust r y.
Wi t hout t he i ndi vi dual s who
own and work t hose farms
who provide jobs, who are so
essential to the local economies
and who provide an irreplace-
abl e t ax base t o t he f eder al
economythis would become
just another sterile industry that
eventually succumbs to foreign markets.
Tobacco Farm Quarterly exists to help you,
t hose who are passi onat e about bei ng t obacco
growers. We cant tell you the exact best way to
work your particular piece of land, but we try to
keep you informed about research, news and inno-
vations that we hope will be useful. And thats also
why we produce this growers guide, to give you a
one-stop resource where you can find all the people
and the companies that exist to assist you. We hope
you will utilize the information contained inside as
you finish out this growing season and as you start
making those purchasing decisions so you can ante
up again in 2011 and beyond.
