Tabac

Plante de tabac Tabac blond séché et haché Le tabac est un produit psychoactif manufacturé élaboré à partir de feuilles séchées de plantes de tabac commun (Nicotiana tabacum), une espèce originaire d'Amérique centrale appartenant au genre botanique Nicotiana (famille : Solanaceae). L'usage du tabac est largement répandu dans le monde entier à la suite de la découverte de l'Amérique. Sa commercialisation est le plus souvent un monopole d'État et sa vente généralement soumise à de lourdes taxes comme en France[1]. Le tabac génère une forte dépendance et sa consommation est responsable de 6 millions de décès par an dans le monde, ainsi que de nombreuses maladies (maladies cardiovasculaires et cancers entre autres), dont le risque peut être diminué avec l'arrêt de sa consommation. Production[modifier | modifier le code] Les Nicotiana sont des plantes néotropicales nitrophiles, originaires des régions chaudes et nécessitant un sol riche en humus.

France Tabac - La culture du tabac. En France, 2 076 exploitations tabacoles cultivent environ 7 000 hectares de tabac. Le producteur moyen cultive une surface de 1,5 à huit hectares avec, certes, quelques différences selon les régions et les variétés. La culture du tabac commence au début du mois de mars, lorsque la graine est semée en pépinière ou sur semis flottants. Le jeune plant va ensuite émerger puis se fortifier avant d'être, vers la mi-mai, transplanté en champ. Au début de l'été il atteint une hauteur d'1,80 mètre, stade auquel commence la floraison. Le planteur s'empresse alors de couper la fleur qui se trouve à la tête de la plante afin que les feuilles parviennent à leur développement maximal. Les premières décolorations signalent l'imminence de la récolte, qui s'opère pendant les mois de juillet/août et qui nécessite le recours à une main-d'œuvre nombreuse et attentive.
