Major Program: Tobacco
The tobacco producers in area began calling in after they received the information from the Tobacco GAP meeting that was held in our county. THE on Farm AUDIT was now to be a fee based program. This new program is not a requirement but maybe a check mark that the company makes to keep or not keep a grower on their program.
