Cuban tobacco production and agricultural development

Overview

Tobacco cultivation campaigns have launched in several Cuban provinces, including Granma and Villa Clara. In Granma, the 2026-2027 campaign began with seed sowing at the Pedro Pompa Credit and Service Cooperative, with officials aiming to expand production to 400 hectares through peasant cooperatives to serve domestic and export markets.

As the campaign progresses, the Granma tobacco industry is implementing new technologies, such as seeders and pruners, to increase efficiency and improve seedling survival rates. These efforts are part of a broader goal to exceed a yield of 4 tons per hectare.
