Technology of tobacco
Tobacco is an agricultural product of the leaves of plants in the genus of nicotine. More than 70 species of tobacco are known, but the chief commercial crop is Nicotiana tabacum. Cigarette smoking is the most common form of tobacco use worldwide. Other tobacco products include pipe tobacco, various smokeless tobacco products, cigars, cigarettes, etc. Tobacco products can generally be divided into smoked and smokeless tobacco.
Tobacco production: cultivation, curing Tobacco is cultivated similarly to other agricultural products. Seeds were at first quickly scattered onto the soil. After the plants are about 20 cm tall, they are transplanted into the fields. Farmers used to have to wait for rainy weather to plant. A hole is created in the tilled earth with a tobacco peg, either a curved wooden tool or deer antler.
Tobacco is cultivated annually, and can be harvested in several ways. In the oldest method, still used today, the entire plant is harvested at once by cutting off the stalk at the ground with a tobacco knife; it is then speared onto sticks, four to six plants a stick, and hung in a curing barn. Before harvesting, the crop must be topped when the pink flowers develop. In modern times, large fields are harvested mechanically, although topping the flower and in some cases the plucking of immature leaves is still done by hand.
In the USA, North Carolina and Kentucky are the leaders in tobacco production, followed by Tennessee, Virginia, Georgia, South Carolina and Pennsylvania.
Curing and subsequent aging allow for the slow oxidation and degradation of carotenoids in tobacco leaf. This produces certain compounds in the tobacco leaves and gives a sweet hay, tea, rose oil, or fruity aromatic flavor that contributes to the "smoothness" of the smoke.
Tobacco can be cured through several methods, including: air-cured tobacco,
fire-cured tobacco, flue-cured tobacco, sun-cured tobacco.
