Default Tobacco Trip

A friend of mine and I are interested in taking a trip to the Dominican to source a tobacco farm or buy some land to start one of our own. Can someone give me an idea on the cost of:
1) Buying 5 acres of farmland that would be conducive to farming tobacco.
2) Sourcing tobacco manufacture from an established farmer in the area, such as how much to buy 5 acres worth of crop from a farmer there.

Also, if we were to take this trip, what airport should we try to fly into, and what areas in the country are the best for growing tobacco?
