Hemp production in Samsun, Turkey, has seen a resurgence with 253 producers covering 4,879.5 decares of land, following efforts to revitalize the industry. This is part of a larger plan to expand hemp cultivation to 4,623,751 decares by 2024, encompassing both seed and fiber production. The plant is valued for its diverse applications in various industries, including health, textiles, and aviation. However, the agency overseeing hemp production cautions against the introduction of new varieties to prevent unintended genetic changes and to comply with local regulations. The industry faces challenges such as drought and requires ongoing support and updated information for its operators.
