Processing & conditioning

Where the crop lives after the cure.

Once tobacco comes off the tunnels or barns, the next bottleneck is usually space: room to grade, bale, store, move trolleys and load vehicles without the crew fighting the layout.

Why it matters

Grading goes faster in the right space.

When the layout fits the work, the crop moves through quicker, the crew isn't fighting for room, and the whole season runs with less standing around.
