Ordering/Casing Burley and Dark Tobacco - Post-Curing Management Practices
Ordering/Casing Burley and Dark Tobacco - Post-Curing Management Practices
Abstract
Market preparation of burley and dark tobacco involves removing cured tobacco from the curing facilities (takedown), removing the stalks from the stick (bulking), removing cured leaves from tobacco stalks (stripping) and packaging for the market (baling). These processes can only be performed when cured leaves are sufficiently pliable to avoid breakage.
