Industrial hemp (iHemp) may have the potential to be the next big thing in the agricultural sector, but with all the hype, making it hard to separate fact from fiction.
Farmers and landholders are will now have the opportunity to uncover those myths by attending the ihemp forum in Narromine next month.
Macquarie 2100 (2100) along with Regional Development Australia (RDA) Orana, have joined forces to stage the national forum on Monday, October 13.
A panel of industry experts from across Australia will deliver short presentations, including Bob Doyle, an iHemp grower, Department of Primary Industries (DPI) Hemp license assessment officer Phillip Blackmore and Australian hemp masonry company manager, Klara Marosszeky.
The forum will assess the immediate and long-term end-markets for iHemp in Australia and provide independent advice on the steps to take to enter the market.
Participants will hear from current Australian, growers, buyers and manufactures' on how this grand idea can be transformed into a functional and sustainable cropping option in the Orana.
