"(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, whenever 
after investigation the Secretary determines with respect to any kind 
of tobacco that a substantial difference exists in the usage or market 
outlets for any one or more of the types comprising such kind of tobacco 
and that the quantity of tobacco of such type or types to be produced 
under the marketing quotas and acreage allotments established pur-
suant to this section would not be sufficient to provide an adequate 
supply for estimated market demands and carry-over requirements for 
such type or types of tobacco, the Secretary shall increase the marketing 
quotas and acreage allotments for farms producing such type or types 
of tobacco in the preceding year to the extent necessary to make avail-
able a supply of such type or types of tobacco adequate to meet such 
demands and carry-over requirements. 
The increases in farm market-
ing quotas and acreage allotments shall be made on the basis of the 
production of such type or types of tobacco during the period of years 
considered in establishing farm marketing quotas and acreage allot-
ments for such kind of tobacco. The additional production authorized 
by this subsection shall be in addition to the national marketing quota 
established for such kind of tobacco pursuant to section 312 of this 
Act. 
The increase in acreage under this subsection shall not be 
considered in establishing future State or farm acreage allotments."
