Hemp has long been proclaimed a wonder plant. And for just as long demonised as a narcotic. But it's the fibre - not the leaf or seed - that's now attracting some serious investment. Landline's Tim Lee has the story.

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

Fun fact : Dupont was one of the main collaborators in the attempt to form a military coup against the U.S Government during the presidency of FDR ! The former U.S General Smedley Butler was the man targeted to lead the coup but once he collected enough evidence he informed Congress and gave testimony about the Conspiracy by very powerful elite groups to takeover the U.S by force with the planned coup . It was all covered up of course and FDR was in the pockets of so many involved that it was swept into the history books . The records of all of the findings from the hearings are stored in the National Archive and are accessible to the general public .

It was a combined attack from racists like Henry Anslinger, whom saw it as the recreational pastime of choice for black Americans; and yes the Dupont and other synthetic creators who wanted their new nylons and other plastics to be the only option industrially. What an enormous amount of damage they've done in the last century to today. Think of all the plastic waste that could have been avoided, and all the people's lives ruined over a plant about as medically dangerous as coffee.

The average home is estimated to last 50-100 years.

I wonder if there is any value in adding rice flour to the hempcrete. We fire our bricks for about 8 hours. The Great Wall of China's bricks were fired in a reducing (oxygen free) atmosphere for 2 weeks. They have lasted perfectly all this time. What is more, the mortar which keeps them together is stronger than the stuff we use, and has lasted all this time. It is believed that this is because it contains 5% rice flour.

Awesome! (though extremely frustrating!!) 20 years ago when we were farming in the Brisbane Valley, we wanted to plant hemp, but Geez!! What a absolute nightmare it was!! We seriously looked into it, did lots of research on the many different advantages of Hemp but we gave up because it was just all too hard. The very closed minded Government officials gave us so much grief, it just wasn't worth it. For us to be even considered, we would have to build a 6 foot security fence (with barbed wire on top) & have other security measures in place, including regular security patrols & the paperwork involved was incredibly stupid!! This is not a new thing as depicted in this video, its just that the Clowns in Government now realise what we were saying back then, it's not the old "Weed" that they thought it was. Unfortunately we were forced to walk away from farming & to this day we still believe it would have been a saving grace for us because we had the vision, but I spose it just wasn't meant to be ! 😔😔

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.

The underlying reality. As pot is legalized, so industrial hemp can make a major comeback. The stigma would never go away, until pot moves closer to legalization, just the way things are. Pot causes less harm than alcohol and hemp is a universally useful product, due to the qualities of the fiber and the plants hardiness and rapid growth. Of course by genetically altering algae, all sorts of fiber, oils and sugar can also be produced, feed by sewerage from cities. A green future is entirely possible.
