Tobacco
Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) is an industrial crop mainly used to produce cigarettes and other smoking products. It is cultivated in areas where climate and soil conditions favor high leaf quality. Sowing takes place in spring and harvest in summer, followed by drying and processing. There are several types of tobacco (Virginia, Burley, Kentucky), each with specific characteristics and uses. Leaf quality and cultivation efficiency directly affect yield and the commercial value of the final product.
Transplant/Sowing for tobacco
In the early stages of tobacco cultivation, uniform development and rapid establishment are essential to achieve regular crop density and homogeneous plant growth. Adverse conditions such as excessive rainfall, temperature drops or poorly structured substrates can slow emergence and weaken young seedlings, increasing the risk of gaps and uneven stands.
Localized application of NOV@® GR at sowing or transplanting supports root activity during the most delicate phases, promoting the emission of active and functional roots. This results in greater initial vigor, improved uniformity across plants and enhanced ability to overcome early stress, providing a solid foundation for crop productivity.

Vegetative growth for tobacco
During the early growth stages it is essential to ensure uniform and fast ground coverage, increase the photosynthetic surface of leaves and optimize the production of assimilates needed for stem and leaf formation.
The application of FYLLOTON® promotes vegetative development and prevents growth interruptions caused by environmental stress thanks to its formulation combining nutritional and anti-stress components, such as amino acids and seaweed extracts.

Adverse conditions for tobacco
Soil fatigue and the presence of soilborne adversities, including populations of plant-parasitic nematodes, may hinder root development in tobacco, reducing absorption efficiency and regular vegetative growth. Under these conditions, the root system struggles to expand and to support adequately plant metabolism.
The combined use of VHERA® (probiotic) and VHERA® LIFE (prebiotic) helps restore rhizobium functionality and promotes the formation of a more extensive, active and resilient root system. This results in improved soil exploration capacity, more efficient water and nutrient uptake and more regular vegetative and productive development, even in challenging soil conditions.

Yield for tobacco
Tobacco yield depends on plant development and balance, parameters that directly influence the quality of leaves intended for industrial processing.
Foliar application of RIZAMMINA® 42 during the vegetative phase, thanks to amino acids and macro- and microelements, stimulates cell multiplication and photosynthetic efficiency, promoting optimal growth, improved leaf quality and increased commercial value of the harvest.

Leaves quality for tobacco
Leaves quality represents the primary objective in tobacco cultivation. In fact, uniformity, healthy tissues, color, elasticity and balanced secondary metabolite content determine aroma, combustion performance and commercial value.
Foliar application of K-BOMBER® 56 promotes balanced plant development and improves leaf quality, increasing marketable yield, consistency and appearance, with a positive impact on overall profitability for crops intended for industrial processing.
