From Library Journal
Hemp, a variety of the genus Cannabis, is a versatile crop used in the manufacture of twine, textiles, home furnishings, shoes, clothing, and construction materials. It grows rapidly, is adaptable to most climates, and improves soil fertility. Twenty-nine countries, including the major industrialized nations, are hemp producers. However, large-scale production is prohibited in the United States, owing to an erroneous belief that its leaves can be made into a marijuana-like drug. Roulac, president of HEMPTECH, a consulting company that promotes industrial hemp, provides an overview of the history, politics, global uses, markets, and farming practices for hemp. Arguing that the production, marketing, and manufacture of hemp and hemp products offer possibilities for new enterprises in the United States and competition in the world market, Roulac urges Americans to repeal the anachronistic law prohibiting hemp production. A well-documented book; recommended for agriculture and business collections.?Irwin Weintraub, Rutgers Univ. Lib., New Brunswick, N.J.
