Hemp: a high-potential crop that requires careful management
Register

As a no-input, low-fertilization crop, hemp responds particularly well to the mastery of basic production techniques. The expansion of outlets (construction, automotive, textiles, human food) makes hemp a crop with interesting development potential. In terms of surface area, France is currently the world's2nd largest producer.

Program:

  • Presentation of the hemp industry: history, players and organization of the sector
  • Hemp outlets: Main value-added sectors (textiles, construction, food, etc.)
  • Hemp physiology: Understanding the key biological elements for optimized cultivation, and adaptability to climate change.
  • Specific features of hemp cultivation: soil adaptation, choice of varieties, water and nutrient requirements, etc.
  • Harvesting techniques: methods and equipment for efficient hemp harvesting
  • Identifying the main phytosanitary problems: Damage observed on the crop and prevention strategies

At the end of the course, participants will be able to :

  • Explain the organization of the hemp industry and its various stages of development
  • Analyze the agronomic, economic and environmental issues related to hemp cultivation
  • Identify and recommend the key cultivation techniques for successful hemp cultivation for different outlets.

Theoretical presentations in the classroom: clear, concise presentations on the hemp industry, its challenges, cultivation techniques and outlets.

Discussions and debates: time for interaction between participants and the trainer to share experiences, ask questions and explore key points in greater depth.

Plot visits: hands-on observation of cultivation techniques, varieties, development stages and any phytosanitary problems.

Interactive approach: the trainer, hemp expert Louis Marie ALLARD, leads the session in a dynamic way, drawing on feedback and case studies.

Evaluation: End-of-session quiz, questions and answers, individual satisfaction survey, self-assessment.

Visual aids: illustrated presentations (diagrams, photos, graphs) to facilitate understanding of technical and economic concepts.

Pedagogical documents: handing out synthetic aids (data sheets, guides, memos) to enable participants to keep a written record of key information.

Knowledge acquisition tests: quizzes or questions and answers to assess participants' understanding and reinforce important points.

Plot visits: direct observation of crops, soils, varieties and cultivation practices, for hands-on immersion.

End-of-session quiz, Q&A, individual satisfaction survey, self-positioning
