A Zimbabwean company planted the country’s first authorised hemp crop on Friday at a prison in the capital Harare after the production of industrial cannabis was legalised last month.

The Zimbabwe Industrial Hemp Trust sowed six varieties of industrial cannabis, also known as hemp, saying it chose a prison yard out of “convenience” as the property already has tight security.

“This pilot project will provide essential knowledge or information for the successful production of this crop. The benefits that will be derived from the production of industrial hemp are enormous and varied,” he said. Unlike marijuana, hemp contains a low count of psychoactive substance THC, while the plant requires minimal care and is adaptable to grow in most climates.The Harare-based ZIHT was the first organisation to be issued with a cannabis licence in the southern African country.The company’s founder, dentist Zorodzai Maroveke, said she discovered the opportunities in cannabis production when she bought a dress made from hemp fabric while studying in China.
