An acre of hemp will produce about 100 lbs of CBD oil. Hemp flowers are more productive, with only 40 lbs needed. An acre of hemp will yield 700 lbs of grain, which will then produce 22 gallons of oil and 530 lbs of the meal. Alternatively, this same amount can produce 5,300 lbs of straw.

Lots of people seem to have different answers to this question, so I took a look online to verify what I know! To make 50 lbs of CBD oil, you need roughly 1000 lbs of hemp. You can usually expect to get around 100 pounds of CBD oil from an acre of hemp.

It takes approximately 2000 pounds of hemp to make over 100 pounds of CBD oil. If I’m doing my math correctly, that means it takes roughly 20 pounds of hemp to make around 1 pound of CBD oil.

Surpassingly an acre of hemp will give you about 100 pounds of CBD oil, and 40 pounds of a flower is used in making CBD oils in a regular packaging for wholesalers for conveying it to individual consumers or different shops that utilize this goldfish material.

It can vary wildly due to the length, maturity, how many flowers or seeds the plant has, etc. etc.
As stated by my fellow contributors, I have heard and read these answers as well as —1 acre for 100 lbs of oil. And I also read that it would take almost 50 lbs to produce 1kg of oil. Wow!

Industrial hemp has been widely used for clothing, building materials, and other products. Hemp varies in harvest, just like any other crop. A good crop produces about 2000 pounds of hemp flower per acre for CBD extraction. An acre of hemp typically produces over 100 pounds of CBD oil. And 40 pounds of hemp flowers are used to produce a kilogram of CBD oil.

I have heard anywhere from 15 – 40lbs of hemp in order to obtain 1kg of CBD oil. This varies so much due to the maturity of the plants and how many flowers are grown on each plant.

According to Hemp Depot, an acre can produce a little over 100 pounds of crude hemp oil.
If it were just a hemp flower being used, it would take only about 40 pounds to make the oil.

That’s what I’ve read, too.

That sounds about right. Then from that hundred pounds of crude, you can get a whole lot more, as most CBD is diluted!

Usually, CBD oil is taken from hemp seeds, and flowers by pressing the oil out of them. It takes 40lbs of hemp flowers to make one kilogram of CBD oil. A standard bottle of CBD oil is 3.5fl oz. There are 33.814floz in 1 kilogram, so that would be 0.10 kilograms per 3.5floz bottle of CBD oil. On average, two hemp flowers weigh 1 gram. It will take on ordinary 500 hemp flowers to make 3.5floz of CBD oil.
