THE AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVE UNION FOR TOBACCO GROWERS (UCAPT) The UCAPT groups together 7 French tobacco cooperatives to which all growers belong. Since the disappearance of the monopoly during the 70s, its role consists in implementing and developing production as well as marketing and partially processing tobacco varieties grown in France. To meet this aim, the UCAPT set up its processing plant in Sarlat, Dordogne in 1985. In 1995, the UCAPT also created ANITTA, the National Interprofessional and Technical Tobacco Association.
