📍Grading of Naturally Cured Virginia (NCV) tobacco 🍂 at Dawson Farm, Matabeleland South. Farm workers are carefully grading cured tobacco leaves by group, quality, colour, style and or extra factors . ✅ Tobacco with the same qualities should be packed together for uniformity. This promotes proper grading and increases chances of fetching a better price at the sales floors. 🚫Mixing different leaves—whether in the same hand or the same bale—lowers classification and can lead to rejected bales.📦 Proper grading = Better returns.
