“Oregon is one of seven states with laws that permit the production of industrial hemp, a non-intoxicating relative of marijuana grown for its sturdy fiber and seeds.  Elsewhere in the country, hemp advocates have reacted to the federal government’s new position on cannabis by moving ahead with legal hemp production.  Kentucky’s top agriculture official said the Cole memo is all he needs to move forward.  India is the largest market for Canadian hemp by weight, though the United States buys more hemp seed than any other country, generally for food and beauty products. China, also a major international exporter of hemp, tends to produce hemp that’s used for textiles.”
