The Invisible Hemp Industry?

Abstract Many of the regular readers of the Journal of Industrial Hemp have been working with hemp for several years. Unfortunately, it sometimes does not feel like much progress is being made. At times, the hemp industry appears to be “invisible” because many of the advances that JIHreaders know about are not reported on by the media. This article goes into the history of hemp and draws parallels between today and the past. The good news is that while hemp may seem invisible, it is really being incorporated into several different industries in many new and innovative ways. Don't give up yet. It may take longer than we'd like, but substantial progress is being made.
