"It is time for Congress to provide relief for tobacco farmers. Since the 1930's tobacco production has been regulated by a quota system, which required farmers to purchase quota in order to grow tobacco"
- Allen Boyd
About this Quote
This quote by Allen Boyd is calling for Congress to supply relief for tobacco farmers. The quota system, which has remained in location given that the 1930s, needs farmers to buy a quota in order to grow tobacco. This system has put a monetary stress on tobacco farmers, as they are required to acquire a quota in order to produce tobacco. The quota system has actually likewise triggered a decline in the number of tobacco farmers, as the cost of buying a quota has actually become too expensive for lots of farmers. Congress needs to offer relief for tobacco farmers by either lowering the cost of the quota or getting rid of the quota system altogether. This would help to guarantee that tobacco farmers can continue to produce tobacco and earn a living.
