In 2022, Cannadouro decided to bet on something new, dedicating the first day of the conferences exclusively to agro-industrial hemp through a new event called Cannadouro Hemp Meeting, a day of lectures with international speakers from various areas within the industrial hemp sector.

The use of hemp in eco-construction is the theme chosen for this 1st edition, as it is “a solution that is having great acceptance and allows the immediate disposal of hemp straw, until now considered a by-product”.

MAGAZINE:” Towards cannabis legality!”

As in all editions, all visitors will be offered the magazine that is a guide to the fair, with all relevant information about the event.

“In 2021 we launched Cannadouro Magazine, a quarterly paper magazine, also with an online version, dedicated to disseminating information about cannabis, which already has 7 editions”, says the organization. Cannadouro Magazine is always launched with the arrival of each new season of the year, and transmits information to its readers from an anti-prohibitionist perspective, dedicating space to news, reports, interviews and feature articles on cannabis and agro-industrial hemp.
