South Africa’s first crop of legally grown industrial hemp has just been harvested on his Normandien farm, Leeds Boerdery, reports Newcastle Advertiser.
Dr Jamalodeen, a general medical practitioner, businessman and seasoned farmer, began planting hemp (cannabis sativa) in December last year when he became the first commercial farmer in the private sector to receive a government-issued permit to do so.
The rest of the family-owned 5,000-hectare farms are used for cattle farming, as well as the planting and cultivation of timber, pecan nuts, soya, maize, barley, and other crops.
So much for the 5000 hectare farm brimming with billions of dollars of fine cannabis. Hemp is another entirely different thing-it sells for CBD use and is pennies, not dollars in value as a plant vs cannabis.
Still doing my DD, will post stuff that is applicable as I find it. Looking for good stuff too.
