And in the heart of Alabama, A&M Agricultural Research Station is planting roots and growing hemp to expand the portfolio of farmers and the industry. According to Dr. Ernst Siebert who manages the land for the project, the fibers are being used for clothing and the herd fiber will be used for building homes in the Huntsville, Alabama area.  The integration of hemp into the agricultural portfolio promises a sustainable solution for farmers seeking alternatives. This versatile plant not only expands farmers' options but also propels the industry toward new heights. (Credit/Source)

In North Carolina, David Suchoff, an assistant professor in the Department of Crop and Soil Sciences at North Carolina State University, is leading a 5-year grant to study how the fiber from hemp can act as an alternative to tobacco.  Suchoff is committed to identifying economically viable crops that can seamlessly integrate into existing farming systems, with a focus on sustainable market demand and favorable profit margins. His program, the Alternative Crops Extension Program, is currently focused on fiber hemp as an alternative for farmers transitioning away from tobacco cultivation.  It also addresses survey results from existing fiber hemp farmers who say their biggest challenges with the crop are planting density, weed management, and fertility. (Credit/Source)
