Organization, Consolidation, Basis of Presentation, Business Description and Accounting Policies [Text Block] | NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2015 and notes thereto. Organization CEN Biotech, Inc. (“CEN” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Canada on August 4, 2013 as a subsidiary of Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc. (“Creative”), a public company incorporated in Nevada. Creative distributed the shares of CEN common stock on a pro rata basis to the Creative shareholders on February 29, 2016 at which time CEN became an independent public company. The financial statements also include the accounts of CEN Holdings, Inc. a Michigan corporation incorporated on May 13, 2016. Intercompany account balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. CEN is an early stage Canadian biopharmaceutical company founded to integrate agronomical and pharmaceutical principles for the purposes of growing, selling, processing and delivering pharmaceutical-grade medical marijuana in its pure and extracted form to patients in accordance with Health Canada’s newly-formed Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR). CEN is actively pursuing business opportunities globally with the intent to grow, sell, process and deliver pharmaceutical grade medical marijuana in various drug delivery mechanisms within nations where it is legal. Basis of Accounting The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company has elected a calendar year end. Use of Estimates and Assumptions Preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 260. Loss per Share Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to ASC 260-10-45. Basic and diluted net income per common share has been calculated by dividing the net income for the period by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding assuming that the Company incorporated as of the beginning of the first period presented. There were no dilutive shares outstanding as of June 30, 2016 or 2015. Subsequent Events The Company follows the guidance in ASC 855-10-50 for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company evaluates subsequent events from the date of the balance sheet through the date when the financial statements are issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them with the SEC on the EDGAR system. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. |

Notes to Financial Statements | |
Substantial Doubt about Going Concern [Text Block] | NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern . As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $7,011,777 at June 30, 2016, and had no committed source of debt or equity financing. While the Company is attempting to obtain a license from Health Canada and generate revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support the Company’s daily operations. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain the license from Health Canada has a realistic chance of succeeding. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations or obtain adequate financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 3 – CONTINGENCIES AND UNCERTAINTIES On March 11, 2015, the Company’s application for a license to produce marijuana for medical purposes was formally rejected by Health Canada. The Company filed an application for judicial review in Canadian federal court on April 10, 2015 in order to obtain a reversal of this decision. The outcome of this legal proceeding cannot be predicted. The file is currently making its way through the legal process in Federal Court in Canada. Most recently, the license sought by the company under the MMPR has been declared to be of no force and effect by the Federal Court (but that declaration is put on hold for 6 months to allow the government to deal with new legislation). Based on these legal findings, the company has decided to withdraw its application for Judicial Review. |
