Hah, didn't know that!
But I guess it makes sense since hemp fiber was so much used back in the day.
It has really interesting properties but it's a pain to work with because of all the regulations. At least here in Brazil
Back in college, a friend of mine was doing some research to develop a new compound fiber and he wanted to use hemp, but the paperwork was so massive that he gave up

Wasn't this a Hoax Dan? I saw it in the news. But you can't always trust them.

Not a hoax. Hemp was a very big crop here in the United States. We have a term called smoking rope here in the United States. Rope was traditionally made from hemp.
Hemp is very easy to grow. There is a reason its nickname is weed.

Even some types of fabric were made from hemp. It's actually a very versatile material.
It's a shame that we don't use it as well as we could because of very outdated ideas and limitations

Oh yeah. That's so cool. In India where I live, it grows automatically adjacent to the roads. Big 6 feet tall bushes of Weed. 😂 😂

Ah now that is something I don't think I have heard of before. Then again I doubt schools would try to promote weed to students.
