Bangalow-based Hemp Foods Australia is calling for local farmers to help cater for the growing worldwide demand in hemp products.
The company grows industrial hemp under government licence, but has been unable to keep up with consumer needs.
"We are using as much Australian-grown hemp seed as we can get our hands on," said managing director Paul Benhaim. "We are actively looking to expand contracts to support more Australian farmers and supply our operational manufacturing plant," Mr Benhaim said.
"This is a great opportunity for farmers to grow something other than sugar cane or cattle, which is also organic and sustainable."
De-hulled hemp seeds, hemp oil and hemp protein are among the products being produced in the Bangalow facility, which has been supported by the Department of Trade & Industry.
If you are a farmer interested in cultivating hemp seed on organic certified land, then register your interest by calling 6687 1260.
