R&D
Research and development: GO Hempnova
Innovation is part of our work. We take part in R&D projects that bring research closer to agriculture and industry, such as GO Hempnova, an Operational Group to re-industrialise hemp cultivation, co-funded by the European Union (EAFRD).
GO Hempnova
HempNova is an innovative project for the re-industrialisation of hemp cultivation, co-funded by the European Union through the CAP Strategic Plan (EAFRD).
Operational Groups bring together farmers, companies, technology centres and researchers to solve a specific problem in the sector. For HempNova, the challenge is to build a viable industrial hemp value chain: from cultivation to primary processing and on to the markets for fibre, hurd and seed.
Agropharm contributes the facility engineering and its experience in regulated crops and quality-driven processes.

Frequently asked questions
What is an Operational Group?
It is a partnership of players from the agricultural and agri-food sector (farmers, companies, research centres, associations) that come together to develop an innovative project under the European Innovation Partnership for Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI).
Can we work with Agropharm on an R&D project?
Yes. We are looking for partners for new agricultural and agro-industrial innovation projects. Send us your idea.
