In the research paper the calorific value and chemical composition of hemp will be analysed, also the melting temperature of ashes. The aim of the study was to evaluate hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) as a bioenergy resource. The hemp variety ‘Bialobrzeskie’ was sown in humi-podzolic gley soil in 2009 and 2010. Complex fertilizer was added before sowing N – fertilizer rates – N0 kg·haE-1 control, N60, and N100 kg·haE-1. The net calorific value of hemp was 15.03-16.14 MJ·kg-1, but the gross calorific value was 17.76-18.98 MJ·kgE-1, and the ash deformation temperature was 710-1450 deg C. The oil content in hemp seeds had great variations. The growing of hemp is beneficial to the environment, and hemp is also a good resource as a biofuel.
