Hemp Werx: The British Are Coming! With Progressive Ideas in Industrial Hemp

From the United Kindom, on Industrial Hemp:

The ongoing debate about whether the growing of industrial crops (such as rape for bio-diesel) has the potentially negative consequence of displacing food production is not relevant to British Hemp crop production, and for a number of reasons.

Firstly, if industry were to build all the new houses required in the UK (200,000 per year) with Tradical Hemcrete and replace all insulation products with hemp fibre, it would still only require 250,000 Hectares of land on which to grow the hemp. This is a small fraction of UK agricultural land.

Hemp is an ideal break crop in a cereal rotation.

Thirdly, as hemp seed is used as an ingredient in many food products, Hemp is not just an industrial crop.

At Hemcore sustainability is not a department or simply an idea – it is what we do.

Sustainability is about the continuously renewable Hemp crops that we grow, it is embodied in the waste-free and pollution-free method we use to process the crop, and it is given real meaning through the manufacture and use of Hemp-based products.
