Реферат: Legalize Industrial Hemp Essay Research Paper Legalize

American farmers are missing out on the great profit that comes with the hemp

product. If the government continues to treat the actual plant as a Schedule I

Controlled Substance, it will continue to make it impossible to grow hemp. If they

make it impossible for the farmers to grow it we will never know if the hemp plant

will really help out our farmers, environment, and economic profit along with

unemployment. Hemp could be the next billion dollar crop, but the nation will never

know if the government keeps it away from us.

If our founding fathers were able to see the hemp plant as a great resource we

should also be able to do so. Let us put everything we thought the hemp plant was

behind us and take it for what it is. A versatile cash crop that is environmentally safe

and has the possibility to be very abundant. THC-free hemp will let many farmers

get back on their feet and will make the United States a more prosperous country.

It?s time to catch up with the rest of the industrial world that is producing this

wonderful yet misunderstood crop.
