Industrial Hemp: Uses and Opportunities - Paperback

by Keidi Obi Awadu (Author)

Industrial Hemp Uses and Opportunities - There is a long record of use of industrial hemp in American and World history. From ancient roots in Egypt and China, to the founding of the United States of America, we have found a long history of industrial hemp applications. Some of the most significant developments in history have had access to hemp products at their core. Yet, there came an era of political intervention where well-crafted anti-marijuana propaganda blurred the distinction between hemp for industry and the psycho-active component in marijuana. All cannabis was demonized by powerful industrial barons with financial self-interest in blocking expanded use of legal hemp. Currently, because of a triple-benefit to society in economics, nutrition and sustainable development, we are witnessing the crumbling of hemp prohibition.
