Less tobacco due to the drought

Because of the drought, less tobacco has been grown this year – the President of the Hungarian National Association of Tobacco Growers (MADOSZ) told MTI on Thursday.

Bényei Illés, head of the Hungarian National Association of Tobacco Growers said that instead of the contracted crop yield of around 8200 tonnes, about 7000 tonnes of tobacco crop is expected on the 4400 hectares tobacco-growing area of the country. (MTI)
