"Hemp Out of the Closet" aims to support the revival of hemp in Western Europe through improved knowledge support for farmers who want to grow the crop, for entrepreneurs/designers who want to use the crop in applications or for students who want to do so in the future. Useful knowledge will translate into: a handbook (with attachments and references to existing knowledge), calculation models (to support entrepreneurs' calculations), Massive Open Online Course at bachelor level where an English version will also be made.
This project receives financial support from the Knowledge and Innovation Agenda for Agriculture, Water, Food (Netherlands). Within the KIA, business, knowledge institutions and government work together on innovations for safe and healthy food (and a green living environment) for 9 billion people in a resilient world.
