According to the introduction,the season for tobacco leaf curing is in the middle and late August. The fresh tobacco leaves picked up need to be continuously cured in an electric curing room for about a week, which requires high demands on the quality of electricity and the reliability of power supply. A stable power supply can make the cured tobacco have good color, superior grade, and higher price, thereby helping tobacco farmers achieve increased income.

To ensure that tobacco farmers have no worries about electricity for curing tobacco, the State Grid Xuchang Power Supply Company began its power supply protection work for curing tobacco as early as June. They organized service teams to go deep into the homes of tobacco farmers to collect electricity usage data, handle electricity usage procedures on-site, optimize the electricity installation approval process, and allow a wide range of tobacco farmers to test curing equipment with electricity in advance, reducing the cost of power access for tobacco farmers. After entering August, the staff actively carried out hidden danger investigations at various curing tobacco points, and timely dealt with problems found. At the same time, the State Grid Xuchang Power Supply Company also carried out one-on-one, face-to-face services, vigorously promoted online payment, did a good job in safety electricity publicity, and provided power support for tobacco farmers.

Up to now, the State Grid Xuchang Power Supply Company has completed the inspection and maintenance work of all electrical equipment involved in tobacco curing electricity lines within its jurisdiction. It also regularly organizes its staff to inspect the electrical equipment used in electric curing rooms, ensuring safe and worry-free electricity use for tobacco farmers with high-quality, efficient, and prompt services.
