Producers and Farmers
Cultivation and pressing hemp juice adds value to the farmer
- Fibers and shives ready for dry storage shortly after harvesting
- Dry shives and fibers ready for industrial processing
- Evaporation liquid for leather treatment
- Juice from the stems for biogas or lactic acid for chemical industry
- Juice from the leaves and leafy tops for human consumption
- Solid remains from pressed leaves good as animal feed
- Juice from taproots as fertilizer
- Solid remains from roots for biogas production
Partial harvesting
optimizes common use of machinery- Flexible harvesting time depending on market price
Partial harvesting
Partial harvesting is a suggested new process of harvesting where
- only the leafy tops of the hemp plant are cut off and processed for the production of juice and animal feed
- the stalks will continue to grow until the desired fiber quality is reached
- the plant will develop new leafy tops, given time
- a continuous stream of fresh juice can be generated
- favorable market prices can determine the time of juice production
- a shared use of machinery is spaced out over time
