UK hemp farmers 'devastated' after being forced to destroy crop

Oxfordshire farmers launch campaign against Home Office policy on hemp cultivation

Two hemp farmers say they have been left devastated after they were forced to destroy 40 acres of the crop - the end product of which can be bought legally in high street shops.

Patrick Gillett and Ali Silk said they had to cut down their crop because the Home Office said they were no longer allowed to harvest it for cannabis oil, or CBD.
