About
Tobacco Growers Information

Welcome to the Tobacco Growers Information Portal. Here you will find extensive resources on tobacco production and marketing.

The College of Agricultural and Life Sciences at North Carolina State University provides extensive educational and research resources to the tobacco farm sector encompassing agronomics, plant pathology, entomology, agricultural engineering, and agricultural economics.

We hope the Tobacco Growers Information Portal increases the usefulness of our resources, in turn improving the lives and businesses of North Carolina farm families.

Thanks to the North Carolina Tobacco Foundation for funding building of this portal. Learn more about the foundation here.

NC State University and N.C. A&T State University work in tandem, along with federal, state and local governments, to form a strategic partnership called N.C. Cooperative Extension, which staffs local offices in all 100 counties and with the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.
