Hemp
Cannabis sativa L. is the scientific name for the hemp plant. Hemp is a sustainable crop with high yields and a high adaptability to the European climate, with positive agronomic characteristics. Hemp requires little water and can be grown on contaminated sites, contributing to soil remediation. While it has been traditionally cultivated for its fibres, seeds and psychoactive substances, there are different varieties of hemp that make ideal multi-purpose crops that can be used in the circular bioeconomy.
