India

 

India is the world's second largest producer of tobacco leaves and the third largest producer of tobacco for smoking.

 

According to reports, around 30% of India's total tobacco production comes from the cultivation of flue-cured tobacco. The tobacco industry in India directly and indirectly employs around 45 million people and generates exports worth $1.4 billion USD. The production and management of flue-cured tobacco in India is overseen by the Indian Tobacco Board, which falls under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry. The cultivation, sales, processing, and import/export of tobacco are all regulated under a registration and licensing system. The main flue-cured tobacco growing regions in India are Andhra Pradesh (production from October to February) and Karnataka (production from May to September).
