ABSTRACT:
Leaf tobacco is processed to form cut tobacco suitable for direct formation of cigarettes therefrom. The leaf is cut into shreds dimensioned for direct use in cigarette rod-forming, the shreds are air classified into a heavier stem containing fraction and a lighter stem-free lamina fraction, the heavier fraction is threshed to separate lamina from associated stem, and the separated lamina and lighter fraction are mixed. The procedure results in an improved rod-forming feed quality.
