Frequently Asked Questions
What is Hemp?
Hemp is a fibrous material produced from the cannabis plant that is used in a wide array of products including, paper, beauty products, rope, and a vast array of other things. Hemp plants do not contain the same chemical makeup as female cannabis plants and contain very little THC.
Hemp, or industrial hemp (from Old English hænep),[1] typically found in the northern hemisphere, is a strain of the Cannabis sativa plant species that is grown specifically for the industrial uses of its derived products.[2] It is one of the fastest growing plants[3] and was one of the first plants to be spun into usable fiber 10,000 years ago.[4] It can be refined into a variety of commercial items including paper, textiles, clothing, biodegradable plastics, paint, insulation, biofuel, food, and animal feed.[5][6]
Although cannabis as a drug and industrial hemp both derive from the species Cannabis sativa and contain the psychoactive component tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), they are distinct strains with unique phytochemical compositions and uses.[7] Hemp has lower concentrations of THC and higher concentrations of cannabidiol (CBD), which decreases or eliminates its psychoactive effects.[7] The legality of industrial hemp varies widely between countries. Some governments regulate the concentration of THC and permit only hemp that is bred with an especially low THC content.[8][9]
What is THC?
THC is an abbreviation of tetrahydrocannabidinol and is one of the most abundant cannabinoids in marijuana. THC is in large part responsible for the plant’s intoxicating effects.
What is the law regarding hemp?
Hemp is defined in the Farm Bill Legislation (signed December 2018) as the cannabis plant (the same one that produces marijuana) with one key difference: hemp strains cannot contain more than 0.3 percent of THC (the compound in the plant most commonly associated with getting a person high). Hemp cannot get you high. Until the Farm Bill, federal law did not differentiate hemp from other cannabis plants, all of which were effectively made illegal in 1937 under the Marihuana Tax Act and formally made illegal in 1970 under the Controlled Substances Act—the latter banned cannabis of any kind. Hemp is no longer a controlled substance as defined by the federal government. (For more information see:
