Suitable land
Access to agricultural land suited to hemp cultivation.
An active permit
An active hemp cultivation permit, or a readiness to obtain one with AHCSA's support.
Commitment to the programme
A willingness to follow AHCSA's structured training programme and sustainable farming practices.
Planting material
Access to planting material from AHCSA's seed production programme and licensed suppliers, for approved AHCSA projects.
Training & support
Training in soil health, irrigation and disease control, delivered through AHCSA's training partnership with the Cheeba Academy, alongside support with harvest logistics and processing. AHCSA also draws on its working relationships with provincial and national Departments of Agriculture, and with Druid's Garden, to support farmers through the programme.
Offtake opportunities †
Access to offtake opportunities for certified biomass or feedstock, contracted against AHCSA's quality specifications.
