From Farmer to Pharma – hemp and medicinal cannabis offer a growing opportunity
Over £300m was spent by UK consumers on CBD – Cannabidiol – in 2019. This opportunity, expected to grow to £1bn in 2024, is just one of the many uses for industrial hemp, Cannabis sativa. The potential of this versatile crop is to be discussed at the Agri-TechE ‘Farmer to Pharma’ conference in partnership with Hanway Associates.
