An interesting history of industrial hemp production on American farms, specifically in Wisconsin, as the pressure to lift the prohibition on hemp production in the United States ramps-up.
Hemp for food and fiber has to be imported right now from countries like Canada. It would be beneficial for our environment, and family farmers here, if the lawmakers in Washington would quit confusing industrial hemp production with marijuana/cannabis. Industrial hemp has virtually none of the active compound (THC) that gives marijuana it’s recreational or therapeutic potency.
