I'm assuming you want it for pest control........my mother worked in a cigar factory in Tampa all her working life and brought home bags of tobacco dust to sprinkle around the yard for all sorts of pests.......I don't know if this is available commercially in garden supply centers.... I drop cigarette butts in an old can with water in it, then pour the resulting "tea" on ant beds.......the ants either die or go away.......and I've got a couple of garden "recipes" that call for tobacco "tea" for pest control, but they call for using chewing tobacco......Walgreens pharmacy has pipe tobacco in one pound bags...not too expensive that way...I'm going to try making the "tea" out of that.......
