Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines federal programs established in the 1930s to control the production and price of flue-cured tobacco, analyzing how they impacted the distribution of benefits between laborers and landowners. By assessing influences on variables affecting tobacco production income, such as price, yield, and labor requirements, the author finds that, over the long term, landowners were the beneficiaries of the programs. However, the study reveals that tenure arrangements, including sharecropping and tenant farming agreements, remained flexible, allowing laborers to earn returns comparable to their opportunities in the absence of these programs. The author concludes that tobacco programs had a greater effect on income distribution than tenure arrangements, with landowners experiencing a greater increase in returns to land than laborers in both North Carolina and Virginia. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
