Hemp Can Save the Planet

[Keith Broaders]

One acre of hemp can produce a total of 1,500 pounds of hemp flowers per year. From each harvest 200 pounds of CBD Oil can be extracted from the flowers. The CBD Oil from a single acre  has a current market value of $27,200!

One acre of hemp can produce 700 pounds of seeds which can be converted into 22 gallons of an alternative to fossil fuel. After the oil is extracted from the seeds 530 pounds of hemp meal remains which can be sold farmers to feed their cows, pigs and chickens.

Hemp fiber  and stalks can also be used to make paper, plastic and textiles. Hemp can also be used for insulation and building materials.
