这可能不会发生。

My information shows that 30% of the world's burley tobacco is grown in Ohio, USA.
I don't know the accuracy of this information.
So I chose to come and ask.

 

[Davy]

I thought Kentucky (70%) and Tennessee (20%) were the biggest producers of this leaf ?

According to the Ohio Secretary of State website, Ohio is ranked Eighth in the country for tobacco production.

I’d be more worried about other, actual food eventually being grown in the region.

Translating that in English might get more response. Ohio isn't really known as part of the tobacco belt.

I've also seen it indicated that Ohio is one of the largest chicken / egg producing states in the US...
Just another coincidence...
Didn't see anything about tobacco though.

Ohio is listed as #8 state in tobacco production, but by the time you get down the list that far, the actual pounds are relatively negligible.

Tobacco Production By State

When it comes to the states that grow the most tobacco, North Carolina retains its traditional place out front. On the international market, however, U.S. tobacco continues to lose prestige as others rise to the top.
