Growing of tobacco

NACE v2.0 Code: A01.15

About growing of tobacco

NACE code 01.15 covers the growing of tobacco, a crucial agricultural activity that supplies a vital raw material for the tobacco processing and manufacturing industries. Tobacco cultivation is an important economic sector, particularly in regions with suitable climates and soil conditions. The tobacco industry plays a significant role in global trade and contributes to the livelihoods of millions of farmers and workers worldwide.

Production process

The production of tobacco involves several key steps. Farmers begin by preparing the soil and planting tobacco seedlings. As the plants grow, they require regular watering, fertilization, and pest management. Tobacco leaves are typically harvested by hand, dried, and cured to develop the desired flavor and aroma. Post-harvest processing may include grading, sorting, and storage before the tobacco is sold to manufacturers or exporters.

Production inputs

The main inputs for the tobacco growing industry include fertile agricultural land, suitable climate conditions, tobacco seeds or seedlings, water for irrigation, fertilizers, and pesticides. Specialized farming equipment, such as tractors, tillers, and curing barns, are also essential for efficient tobacco production. Labor, both skilled and unskilled, is another crucial input for tasks like planting, harvesting, and post-harvest processing.

Production outputs

The primary output of the tobacco growing industry is cured and processed tobacco leaves. These are then supplied to 12.00 Manufacture of tobacco products for further processing into a variety of tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, and smokeless tobacco. The tobacco leaves may also be exported to other countries for use in their own tobacco manufacturing industries.
