CBD Farm Planning

Arcview Market Research’s latest report in collaboration with Green Lion Partners gives valuable insights for anyone looking to start a hemp farm for CBD.

Hemp farming can be approached and cultivated in many ways. Whether you are growing your product indoors with hydroponics or soil, or you are growing outdoors using organic conventional practices, identifying the growing methodology appropriate for your corresponding end product(s) is essential. The improper mixing of approaches can lead a farmer to use non-compatible products together, which results in lower yields or other situations detrimental to both the plants and the business. The sheer variety of products and methods available can leave entry-level farmers baffled, since it appears they have limitless choices to make. Fortunately, this is not the case, and once a philosophical and methodological approach has been decided upon, the list of possible products quickly decreases. Still, these decisions cannot be written in stone, as things may change.

  • Products in seasonal and/or emerging industries like hemp farming fluctuate quickly.
  • Sourcing certain products for a commercial facility without adequate lead time is a common issue for new and experienced farmers alike. Plan a season ahead.
  • Many capital investments take a month or two to arrive after being ordered.
  • Foster clear communications between grower, supplier, and the financial team.
