Book A History of the Hemp Industry in Kentucky

Download or read book A History of the Hemp Industry in Kentucky written by James F. Hopkins and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to believe that at one time burley tobacco was not the chief cash crop in Kentucky. Yet for more than half a century hemp dominated the state's agricultural production. James Hopkins surveys the hemp industry in Kentucky from its beginning through its complete demise at the end of World War II, describing the processes of seeding and harvesting the plant, and marketing manufactured goods made of the fiber. With debate presently raging over the legalization of industrial hemp, it is essential that an accurate portrait of this controversial resource be available. Although originally published in 1951, Hopkins's work remains remarkably current as hemp manufacturing today is little changed from the practices the author describes. This edition includes an updated bibliography of recent publications concerning the scientific, economic, and political facets of industrial hemp.

Book Hemp and the Global Economy

Download or read book Hemp and the Global Economy written by Nadra O. Hashim and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hemp helped not only to define economic development in southern and border-states, it also played a crucial role in agricultural production in the Mid-Atlantic, as well as industrial development in the North-east. From the founding of the nation, the manufacture of American hemp helped monetize the US economy. US hemp producers also established a range modern labor practices, including the identification and training of skilled labor, the use of seasonal workers, and ultimately, the creation of a sliding scale of wages. This book chronicles this history, as well as the contemporary controversy obstructing the production of both industrial hemp and medical marijuana. The analysis concludes with a survey of current industrial hemp projects, including several promising adaptations - as a potential medicine, a bio-fuel, and most promisingly, a reliable source of clean computing fabrication.

Book Hemp for Victory

Download or read book Hemp for Victory written by Richard M. Davis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2009 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In a report by the world's top environmental scientists, the only thing listed that mankind can do to have an impact on changing weather patterns is to reduce the excess CO2 levels from the air. Hemp for Victory: A Global Warming Solution is a key for reducing the effects of global warming using hemp. Why hemp? In this book you'll learn: hemp is a biomass champion, breathing in more carbon dioxide (the most abundant greenhouse gas) than any other plant. This carbon dioxide is turned into wood and fiber by photosynthesis. Hemp wood takes the pressure off our forests by making paper and building materials like pressboard. Hemp is the best plant at consuming the greenhouse gas CO2, a step the world leading scientists say is critical to at least slowing down the dramatic effects of global warming. Remove the cause, CO2 pollution, and the effect, global warming, can be reduced, if not healed. Hemp can do all the jobs fossil fuels do now. When used as a biofuel, hemp replaces toxic energy (i.e. fossil fuels, nuclear power) with clean sustainable energy. Hemp biofuel can be processed to run any engine, heat or cool any building, run any factory, and eliminate the greenhouse gases and pollution that come from modern energy sources. The Museum has thousands of hemp exhibits both on line and in the private wing, many included in this book. The Museum's founder and curator, Richard M. Davis, wrote this dynamic piece of literature that gives chapter and verse of how to best re-hemp the planet. This book is based on the museum's extensive research on hemp and the environment. The museum is also developing a Hemp for Victory plan to successfully use hemp to help solve the survival problem of global warming by coordinating famers with growing and market information. A 20% recreational hemp tax plan is in development to finance the program and help deal with the current impact of global warming, i.e. Hurricane Katrina."--Back cover.

Book Craig Lee s Kentucky Hemp Story

Download or read book Craig Lee s Kentucky Hemp Story written by Joe Domino and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-30 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many people are important to the progress on this issue, since the prohibition of hemp in the 30s, Craig Lee stands with Jack Herer, Gatewood Galbraith, and a dozen or so other true pioneers of the revival of hemp. Without them and their relentless involvement, what is happening today would not have been possible. I stood on their shoulders and I could not have been more thankful for the experience and knowledge of having done so. All the good that will come from hemp production in Kentucky [and the United States] is unlimited and immeasurable. - County Judge Executive John Riley, Spencer County, Kentucky
