Queensland Country Life visited HFA’s Bundaberg crop and spoke with co-founders Lauchlan Grout and Harrisson Lee about the industry’s progress since hemp foods were legalised in 2017.
The article covered the need to clearly separate industrial hemp from medicinal cannabis in policy and public language, hemp’s role as a rotation crop that returns carbon to the soil, its uses in fibre-based materials, and HFA’s capacity to supply sowing seed for commercial crops.
