Growing hemp in French Guiana: a land of opportunity for your investments
Hemp is no longer a niche crop.
In France, the CBD and hemp industry is now worth nearly €850 million and supports more than 10,000 direct jobs.
Yet, a large proportion of the flowers sold in France is still imported. There is room to grow.
French Guiana offers a unique opportunity to seize.
It is a French and European territory, with the same legal framework, the same currency, and direct access to the European Union market. But it also benefits from a tropical climate, abundant sunshine, and vast areas still available.
What Europe grows in one season, French Guiana can consider over several cycles a year.
The framework is clear and secure.
The cultivation of hemp flowers and leaves is authorized in France for varieties listed in the official catalogue, derived from certified seeds, with a THC level not exceeding 0.3%. It is reserved for active farmers, which guarantees a professional and traceable industry.
These crops are also eligible for Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) aid.
Hemp is an exceptional plant.
It requires little water and few inputs, and it regenerates the soil thanks to its deep roots. It is fully utilized: flowers for CBD, seeds for food, fibers for textiles and eco-building materials.
Every part of the plant is a potential source of income.
Investing in hemp in French Guiana means betting on three major trends: natural well-being, sustainable agriculture, and "made in France". It also means supporting the economic development of a young and dynamic territory, and creating local jobs.
