Assumptions:
- Initial Costs:
- Seeds: $5,000
- Land Preparation & Planting: $1,000
- Equipment: $4,000 (may include smaller machinery, tools, etc.)
- Ongoing Monthly Costs:
- Labor: $1,500
- Water: $300
- Fertilizers and Pesticides: $500
- Yield: CBD yield can vary based on the variety of the hemp plant and farming practices. For our example, let’s assume a yield of 1,000 pounds of dried flower per acre.
- CBD Content: Let’s assume the hemp flowers have a CBD content of 10%.
- Market Price: The price of CBD can fluctuate, but as of my last update, a conservative price for CBD flower was about $10 per percentage point of CBD per pound. So, hemp with 10% CBD could potentially fetch $100 per pound.
Earnings:
Given these assumptions, the earnings for the hemp farm would be:
Monthly Costs: Labor + Water + Fertilizers = $1,500 + $300 + $500 = $2,300
Yearly Costs: (Monthly Costs x 12) + Initial Costs = ($2,300 x 12) + $10,000 = $37,600
Yearly Revenue: Yield x Price = 1,000 pounds x $100 = $100,000
Yearly Net Profit: Yearly Revenue – Yearly Costs = $100,000 – $37,600 = $62,400
If we spread the net profit across 12 months:
Monthly Net Profit = \frac{$62,400}{12} = $5,200
Return on Investment:

Using the first year’s net profit and the initial investment (excluding recurring yearly costs, as they are operational expenses):
ROI = \frac{($62,400 – $10,000)}{$10,000} \times 100% = 524%
Based on these hypothetical figures, the hemp farm would have an impressive ROI of 524% in the first year. It’s important to remember that these figures are purely illustrative, based on assumptions. In the real world, challenges like pests, diseases, weather conditions, changing market prices, and regulatory issues can all impact profitability.
