Description: This is the second of two volumes to be published from the FAO project Tobacco Supply, Demand and Trade by 2010. This present volume is intended to provide a closer look at the tobacco economies of a few selected countries. In order to better understand the economic contribution of tobacco production, and the likely impact which tobacco control might have on producing and exporting countries, detailed studies were conducted of a number of countries in which tobacco plays an economically important role. The countries so studied were Brazil, China, India, Malawi, Turkey and Zimbabwe.
