November 8-9 The traditional cannabis business conference-exhibition "Cannabis Hub.LT 2024" was held at the Academy of Agriculture of the Vytautas Magnus University (Universiteto St. 8A, Akademija, Kaunas district). Arriving at the event, they could familiarize themselves with the achievements of the fiber hemp business and participate in an international conference. This year, the theme of the international conference was "The contribution of fiber hemp business to the development of restorative (regenerative) agriculture and the circular economy in rural areas."

The main focus of the conference was on soil quality restoration and maintenance technologies and the role of fiber hemp business in stimulating the regional economy.

For Lithuanian farmers who are considering whether it is worth growing fibrous hemp, the speakers of the conference revealed how hemp helps to restore the quality of the soil and enables profitable farming.

At the conference, scientists and practitioners of regenerative agriculture from Lithuania, Ukraine, the Czech Republic and the USA shared their best practices. Among the foreign guests were also international cannabis business experts who provided the "freshest" knowledge about the development of the EU and global cannabis market.

Traditionally, the conference paid a lot of attention to Ukraine. A large delegation of Ukrainian businessmen and scientists came to the conference. It was discussed how representatives of the fiber hemp business can usefully cooperate in preparing to withstand aggression and sustainably rebuild the devastated country after the war.
