Takeaway
White Burley 'Win-5' tobacco delivers a contracted ₹15,000/qtl price and ~₹60–70k net per acre with minimal investment, making it a price-secure cash crop in Prakasam.
Summary
- Farmer Peddanna of Basavapuram, Konakalametla mandal, Prakasam district (AP) grows White Burley variety 'Win-5' as a low-risk commercial crop.
- Spacing: 27 inch row x 10–12 inch plant; 10,000 plants/acre; first cutting at 45–50 days, then 5–6 cuttings total.
- Yield ~10 quintals/acre at the ITC/GPI fixed contract rate of ~₹15,000/qtl, giving gross ~₹1,50,000 and net ~₹60,000–70,000 after labour.
- Leaves are sun-dried 10–20 days on bamboo racks, pressed into bales, and sold either at the door or directly to ITC/GPI—no mandi risk.
- Key advantage: companies guarantee a fixed price before sowing, so the farmer carries no market-price risk; only late-season drought is a concern.
