Hemp Producers News

Australia Australia Latest News,Australia Australia Headlines

Eastern Cape hemp producers are calling for government assistance with resources…

Most producers lack suitable machinery for production and processing. This issue arises as the provincial government explores the hemp industry as a potential economic booster.

Malinda says, “It is really important for us to come to this stage where we are going to produce and be able to get something out of our produce because when we were busy with the research, we were producing and not able to sell. Now we are going to sell. We are going to have off-takers and be able to sell to other producers, so that’s the difference.”

Mabuyane says, “The high unemployment rate in our province is something that must be confronted, something we must fight with everything that we have. If we are focused on issues like these, definitely nothing is insurmountable. We are quite optimistic with the work that has been done, thanks to the team that is hard at work.”
