Hemp is an extremely robust annual crop. Drilling takes place from mid-April up to the end May. Cutting is around mid-August (or mid-September for dual crops). Seed is harvested and taken away immediately for drying and crushing for oil. After 2-3 weeks for ‘retting’, the dry hemp straw is baled and stored on farm until required for processing.
Hemp is not a greedy crop and returns quantities of nutrients to the soil. Hemp yields are among the highest of any crop. The Hemp crop requires no herbicides or pesticides. No part of the plant is wasted. Hemp fibres are tough, durable and incredibly versatile.
