Tobacco farmers

Tobacco farmers cultivate tobacco plants primarily for cigarette and cigar production. They typically operate farms or plantations, managing planting, nurturing, and harvesting crops. These farmers often face economic challenges due to fluctuating tobacco prices, health concerns, and environmental impacts. While tobacco farming is a traditional livelihood in many regions, it is also a subject of debate because of its association with health risks and social issues. Despite these concerns, tobacco farmers often play a significant role in local economies, especially in areas where the crop is a key agricultural product.
