Rice","doi":"10.1080/15377880802391274","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/15377880802391274","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT An increase in the demand for biomass for conversion to heat by combustion is likely. The potential role for hemp in supplying this demand is discussed in this article. For hemp, key characteristics such as net calorific value, ash content, and melting behavior, and the risk of corrosion or polluting emissions, are all favorable. Low bulk density and size reduction difficulties might limit its use for pellet production and in small boilers; its use in electricity generating plants and medium-to-large boilers would have better prospects. To maximize profitability, an agronomy program to achieve high yields at the lowest cost is required. In the Irish climate, this would entail early sowing (late March/early April), a low seed rate (∼30 kg/ha), and variety selection for maximum stem yield regardless of fiber content. With an optimal program, trial results suggest that a dry matter yield over 10 t/ha is attainable. Cost analysis shows that an energy price of about e6/GJ is required to achieve a profit level similar to conventional food enterprises. Arable farmers would welcome a break crop in rotation with cereals. Processors needing a year-round fuel supply might be expected to welcome an autumn-harvested crop as part of a mix with spring-harvested crops such as miscanthus and willows. A mix of energy crop species would improve biodiversity and visual impact. Hemp should be a strong contender to be part of the energy crop mix.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114911980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The oldest illustration of Chinese hemp (a biotype of C. indica) that we know of in a mechanically printed book dates to 1248 AD.

An official list of the hemp varieties that receive an agricultural subsidy in the EU is maintained by the EU Commission, and EU member states are expected to sample, analyze, and report delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) values for eligible crops of each cultivated variety by the end of each year, according to EU Regulation No. 796/2004. Based on this information, additions to and deletions from this list are made early in the following year. The main criteria for being included on the EU list of subsidized hemp varieties seems to depend on two important factors: the variety be included in the EU Common Catalogue of recognized plant cultivars, and the variety, on average, must have less than 0.2% THC, according to the sampling and testing methodologies described in Annex I of EU Regulation No. 796/2004. By comparison, values for common drug-Cannabis typically range from 5–10% THC. The purpose of this article is to point out important features in the EU sampling protocols that favor monoecious fiber varieties from western Europe and disfavor dioecious oilseed varieties from eastern and northern Europe, in addition to other peculiar features. Also, potential systematic problems that exist within the current analytical protocol for analyzing THC are identified and discussed. Direct criticism is leveled at the ignorance and incompetence demonstrated by civil servants who are responsible for correctly understanding and implementing EU Regulation No. 796/2004. Suggestions for improvements in various aspects of reporting, sampling, and analytical methodologies are presented.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129848114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hemp is sensitive to temperature and day length with a quantitative short-day requirement, though long days can be beneficial for fiber production in late varieties, provided that other growing conditions are optimal. The response of fiber hemp varieties to photo period and low temperatures at northern latitudes was studied in Finland in 2003 and 2004. The article also reports on risks and prerequisites of hemp growing at high latitudes showing that if a suitable variety is used, stem yields of more than 10 t ha−1 are possible. If a variety adapted to southern European climates should be grown, however, the short growing season and the frosts in the beginning and at the end of the summer can restrict the plant growth. The northern limit for hemp production in Europe is currently at 64 to 65°N.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117178825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since January 1, 2007 Poland has been included in a European Union system of subsidies to energy crop production and hemp will be included in the group of energy crops. In Poland, climate and soil conditions are suitable for hemp cultivation. Currently, there are four cultivars of monoecious hemp registered (Beniko, Białobrzeskie, Silesia, and Tygra), yielding 10–15 tons of biomass per hectare. The technologies for hemp cultivation and harvesting are developed. Research conducted at the Institute of Natural Fibres has shown that hemp is a valuable raw material for energy production (its heat of combustion is about 18 MJ/kg). The source of energy is either the whole plant or its shives (75% of yield mass). Trials on producing briquettes from shives, conducted at the INF Experimental Farm at Steszew, were successful and a pilot line for the production of briquettes was installed.","PeriodicalId":319023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Hemp","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127989279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
