Technical hemp until the middle of the last century was one of the dominant culture in the United States. The Declaration of Independence was drafted on hemp paper, the best, the most ancient examples of the Bible were made on the basis of hemp. Malonarkoticheskaya cannabis in modern production is used to make fabrics, food, for fuel, the basis for the production of bioplastics, construction and insulating materials and paper, as well as for the production of parts in the automotive industry.
Everything changed in 1937 when a law was passed on the tax on marijuana. As part of it, any psychoactive drug cannabis recognized, even if it did not contain a sufficient amount of controlled tetrahydrocannabinol. In connection with the adoption of the aforementioned legal act, any cultivation of hemp in the United States is economically not viable.

Pennsylvania will soon become another state, which will be part of a new, clean, green agricultural revolution, based on the cultivation of economically viable products derived from hemp. As in the past century, hemp in the next decade will be able to achieve the level of profitability in the billions of dollars. C ode side malonarkoticheskoy permit hemp cultivation in the United States is extremely beneficial for the country step, on the other legalization of the use of psychoactive cannabis it is extremely advantageous in economic terms. Kannaindustrii turnover may reach $ 22 billion by 2020.

And this despite the fact that all the raw materials used for production of food, textile and knitted products imported from Canada, Europe or China.
Comment of the Association "Ukrainian industrial hemp"
Despite the changes in the federal US policy, American farmers still can not legally malonarkoticheskuyu cultivate cannabis in the country. Konoplevodstvo still considered illegal activities, so farmers still can not officially industrial crops cultivate industrial hemp. Beznarkoticheskaya hemp is still considered psychotropic substances banned in the United States and livestock producers must obtain permission from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), regardless of whether the entrepreneur has a resolution of their own state in the cultivation of cannabis malonarkoticheskoy or not. In 2014, representatives of the DEA arrested in Kentucky hemp seed malonarkoticheskoy, imported from Italy, which was intended for research.
