Production Methods

Industrial hemp is a sustainable plant that offers both ecological and economic advantages. The production process begins with the planting of seeds and ends with the processing of the plant for various uses.

Planting: Hemp seeds are typically planted when the soil temperature reaches a sufficient level, usually in late spring. KENEVİRO adopts an eco-friendly approach by avoiding the use of pesticides and agricultural chemicals. Hemp can thrive with minimal water, making it possible to cultivate even in regions with limited water resources.

Growth and Care: Hemp is naturally resistant to harmful insects, minimizing the need for pesticide use. Additionally, its deep roots nourish the soil and prevent the growth of weeds. Due to its dense growth and rapid development, it doesn't allow the growth of unwanted weeds.

Harvest: Hemp is usually harvested towards the end of summer. Hemp grown for fiber production is typically harvested in August to September before the seeds mature, while hemp grown for seed production is harvested later, typically in October to November. This may vary depending on climate and region.

Processing: Harvested hemp is divided into fibers, seeds, and the woody core known as "hurds." Fibers are used in textiles and construction materials, seeds are used for nutrition and oil production, and hurds are used in the production of bioplastics, bioenergy, cat litter, and building materials.

End Products: Processed hemp is used in the production of various industrial products, including hemp oil, hemp flour, hemp-based plastics, hemp fiber, hemp bricks, hemp building materials, and more.

Industrial hemp is an essential part of sustainable agriculture and an ecological lifestyle. Hemp produced by KENEVİRO without the use of pesticides and agricultural chemicals offers both environmental and economic benefits and plays a significant role in the future of agriculture. With its low water and fertilizer requirements, hemp is an environmentally friendly and beneficial plant with high oxygen release, carbon dioxide absorption, and the ability to increase the yield of subsequent crops.
