Atlas Agri Zimbabwe Expands Air-Cured Tobacco Production. Harare, Zimbabwe
In a promising development for the agricultural sector, Atlas Agri Zimbabwe has announced plans to substantially increase its air-cured tobacco hectarage for the upcoming season.
This ambitious expansion aims to bolster local production and strengthen the economy, as the company seeks to enhance its contribution to Zimbabwe's tobacco industry. This season, Atlas Agri Zimbabwe is set to engage over 150 farmers who will cultivate tobacco across more than 100 hectares of land. This marks a significant increase from the previous year, where only 17 farmers operated on a modest 10 hectares.
The decision to expand reflects a growing confidence in the sector and a commitment to sustainable agricultural practices. The increase in hectarage is expected not only to boost production but also to provide greater opportunities for local farmers, fostering economic growth and community development.
By enhancing collaboration with farmers, Atlas Agri Zimbabwe aims to ensure that best practices in air-curing techniques are employed, promoting both quality and efficiency in production. As the country navigates its agricultural landscape, the commitment of Atlas Agri Zimbabwe to expand its tobacco production is viewed as a positive step towards revitalizing the sector and contributing to the nation’s agricultural output.
Industry experts are optimistic that this initiative will pave the way for further advancements in Zimbabwe's tobacco industry, enhancing its reputation on the global stage. Atlas Agri Zimbabwe remains dedicated to supporting local farmers and cultivating partnerships that will ultimately benefit the agricultural community and the nation as a whole.
As they embark on this new chapter, the company looks forward to the fruitful contributions of its farmers and the positive impact this expansion will bring to the economy.
