Responsible production
Traceability, grower records, safe work, worker welfare and responsible curing.
SUSTAINABILITY & FUTURE READINESS
Plant for the future.
Stay for the survival.
Stronger growers depend on healthy soils, reliable water, responsible production and an environment that can support the next generation.
#MyTreeTheirFuture
2026/27 PROGRAMME TARGET25,000 trees
To be planted and verified across tobacco-growing communities. This is a target, not a count of trees already established.
| Indicative category | Target |
|---|---|
| Approved woodlot / curing-energy trees | 20,000 |
| Fruit trees | 1,000 |
| Indigenous / biodiversity trees | 4,000 |
We are mobilising growers, clusters, communities and partners towards a proposed December 2026 launch aligned with National Tree Planting Day.
Count what survives.
Each planting site should have a custodian, a planting record and a care plan. We will distinguish seedlings distributed, trees planted, trees verified and trees surviving.
Survival checks are planned at approximately three and twelve months. Species and sites will be assessed with appropriate forestry expertise. Verified results will be published as the campaign progresses.
Future readiness goes beyond trees.
Soil, water & climate
Practical stewardship, efficient water use and resilience in changing seasons.
Standards & diversification
Food safety, buyer requirements and assurance readiness for enterprises beyond tobacco.
