A corn poppy bud about to burst into full bloom in the garden of the National Trust property ‘Mount Stewart’ between Newtownards and Greyabbey. In this form it has a menacing quality, insect-like and alien. I would estimate the bud was approx. 1 inch across. Featured in ‘The Beauty of Nature’ on 27/12/09. Featured in ‘Top shelf wildlife and nature art’ on 27/12/09. Featured in ‘All things natural in the British Isles’ on 31/12/09. 166 Views as at 31/12/09.

The medicinal poppy industry has now been operating in Tasmania for over 30 years, and the State produces approximately 50% of the world’s legal poppy crop. The industry size has been fluctuating in the past three years with productivity increasing with the use of superior cultivars, advances in production technology and selection of better growing areas. There were record harvests achieved in the 2001/02 season creating a stockpile of raw material. In late 2002 the world prices decreased, reducing the total expected value of the industry to Tasmania from the current crop. The area planted to poppy production in Tasmania for the 2002/03 season was about 17,500 hectares and involved 1,150 licensed growers. The estimated farm gate value to growers was approximately $65 million. The industry’s total value to the Tasmania economy is expected to be about $200 million. Tasmania also produces poppy seed for culinary purposes. Poppies are grown under licences issued by the Poppy Advisory and Control Board. The poppy (Papaver somniferum) is unique, as it is the only plant capable of biologically synthesising the alkaloid morphine. It also produces at least twenty other alkaloids of which the most important are codeine and thebaine. These opiate alkaloids are the raw materials used in the production of many analgesic preparations and related medicinal compounds.
