Started as part of
The Premium Tobacco Group

Climate change is being addressed by a reduction in the use of fossil fuels and using more sustainable non-food plant-based alternatives. Biomass growing started as part of Premium Tobacco as the company needed a sustainable alternative to native wood fuel to cure tobacco, in order to help reduce African natural forest denudation.
