I've grown hemp the last 4 years here on East Coast of Canada, and had some success with growing the seed. Grew hemp for fibre one year and didn't make enough to pay for the seed let alone anything else. I felt I had a decent crop, but even if i had double the yeild wouldn't have made anything growing fibre hemp. I'd be curious to know if the fibre growers on here are making a profit or are they part of a company and making the money from the end product?
And it has been announced that the tasmanian liberal government will not move hemp from a controlled crop, the poisons act and the misuse of drugs act. Puts the state 100 years backwards in forward thinking
Hempseed was the first thing Europeans planted in Australia and NZ after the infamous first fleet landings. They sailed from the UK with a ton of it to the Old Stone Store in Keri Keri. My Great, great great grandfather was among the first settlers of NZ.
One thing I really want someone telling me is that how much in quantity in cost in providing hemp seeds in market, I am born in HK, and when I am very young single digits young, I remember that there is what in call 火麻仁in Hong Kong, it was part of what is called 涼茶舖，I think nowadays these are largely gone but with the correct favouring and food science I think can sell into existing bubble tea shop around the country, if in mass it is cheaper than tea, I think there is a market, even 10% replacements to the tea make millions of dollars per year here in Australia alone.
If someone can give me an opportunity, I will go out and try to make a market for this.
Cannabis/hemp can be used for an amazing variety of uses. Everything from medicine to food to plastics to concrete. It's also a good crop for soil remediation.
Maybe its time to contact other countries and see what they are doing with hemp and hemp harvesting equipment and see what equipment is being used to process hemp.The Netherlands and France are two places to look at.
Hemp isn’t new. It was HUGE during WW2. Many items were made from hemp during the war. I don’t know why it’s such a revolutionary plant. We just need to be smart. We aren’t the only people in the world that have been planting hemp. It makes me laugh that some people think this is new. I hope Australia becomes a world leader in the production of hemp products.
This is the plant that will save the world. I have been telling people how for years now. Thank you! America will be the last great utilized of this magnificent plant
there was a time when it was illegal 'not' to grow hemp in Australia. because of its valuable uses. cotton industy is such a behemoth, they don't want anyone coming along with a product that is 5 times more durable and uses significantly less water! Hopefully this is the start of proper change and all those fantastic uses in the building industry
its only hard to harvest if you make it hard to harvest, other wise go back to the old days to find the proper way of doing it, the modern way is complicated and overwhelming,, KISS keep it simple stupid
Awesome plant, one of the miracle plants, from eating, making oil, making wood and bricks, making fibre for clothing to ropes, can use in cosmetics also health benefits, industrial hemp, fire resistant for bricks also pest resistance, use as feed for animal and horse bedding, fantastic
I remember watching a documentary on hemp years ago in the Netherlands i think and that farmer saying the amount of trial and error to be able to cut the crop and the machinery combinations needed. You could tell the farmer was exasperated with the damage the hemp did his machinery till he devised one that worked
A local small scale industrial hemp farm got ate by a herd of elk. The farm folded, the elk will be back.
there is no downsides Hemp is an awesome crop
in the US a machine was developed over a century ago that processed hemp so efficiently it threatened timber and other textile industries of the day so they called it marijuana and boom!
Impossible to trust a guy who says hemp and marijuana are "chalk and cheese", when in reality they're more "mozzarella and parmesan"

Hemp rebar is better then steel.
Hemp seed is tasty.
People railed against the ban on hemp growing for many years. I’m glad they’ve been proven right
What Tungsten Blades, Electric Coffee Grinder does me fine.
Little ripper feels 🎉
more hemp, less cotton – at least in Australia.
Corporate capitalism aka capitalism has fd us all up.
The worst mistake in human history was the war on this plant. A century wasted and for what?
God creation is magnificent

Cannabis is litterally the oldest cultivated crop on planet earth. Sativa means cultivated
2025 – everyone's growing Hemp, it's worthless.
Australian farmers learn to harvest hemp….. Unemployment in Nimbin falls to zero as demand for hemp growers increases.
All reusable grocery bags should be made from hemp

Yep waaay to late. So many people wanted this and so many have died and been locked up or ruined for it.
Lets not take it for granted.
This is the plant that will save the world. I have been telling people how for years now. Thank you! America will be the last great utilized of this magnificent plant
All this while leaving the soil in better condition. No brainer. O wait. Where are the politicians brains?
Wonder if the weight is comparable for garage doors. I’m sure everyone would appreciate the insulation

Nitrogen fixing plant.
Better late than never.
