Question 49 – How does industrial hemp benefit the economy?   Next question is how does industrial hemp benefit the economy? Oh my gosh. Thanks for an easy basic question. Dude, because it can be used as… first of all, it’s very quick and easy to grow. So hemp seed hemp. Can grow really healthy seven to ten foot stalks even taller within about a 60 day period it grows fast.

And it takes way less water than it does to grow like a tree And if you’re using it, you can utilize it for things that are so wide ranging The oils can be used as a petroleum substitute

The fibers can be used and everything from clothes To different types of building materials, to ropes, man, and the, for food, the seeds are great, they have an incredible nutritional benefit, the the the fiber content, if you’re doing it a different grind for fibers, those work really good.

It just is so wide ranging and the thing is is that the plants themselves don’t take that long to grow you can have a high Yield with a low growth period and so that’s really what you’re looking for you want something where it’s like minimal time maximum usage minimal time to produce maximum Usage and output.

And so, I, I just, the United States in general imports, I can’t, I don’t even know the numbers offhand, but I mean, Millions of tons of hemp seed and hemp products from China and from Canada annually. You get a little bit from Europe, but my gosh, you know, If we ever had a climate of grown-ups where you could safely grow industrial hemp, And replace what we’re getting from China or replace even, you know, Canadians are wonderful.

So I would never want to snub our neighbors to the north. They’re great. But I mean, if you’re looking for something, you know, the question was like, how does the industrial hemp benefit the economy? So I’m assuming you mean a local national economy like our gross national product. It, it would replace billions of dollars in imports.

And we would be able to grow it here and export it completely flipping that whole process on its head So there is such a tremendous ability to improve the economy if Industrial hemp products and commerce were able to just flow and function normally without being a shadow  Shadow banned and shadow snubbed the way that they are now, even with all the legislature you have so many things that try to get in the way of that, which is still just really sad and unnecessary, but anyways, yeah, industrial hemp has so many ways of benefiting the economy.

It’s, it’s ridiculous. Anything from hemp plastics to hemp clothes to foods. It’s so wide ranging. We barely scratched the surface of what we could do with it. So there’s a lot of potential. All you have to do is get it together, USA. We could be doing so much better. All right. Okay. Thanks.
