"Numerous studies estimate that hemp is one of the best CO2-to-biomass converters. It's even more effective than trees. Industrial hemp absorbs between 8 to 15 tonnes of CO2 per hectare of cultivation. In comparison, forests typically capture 2 to 6 tonnes of CO2 per hectare per year." – Darshil Shah, Senior researcher at the Centre for Natural Material Innovation at Cambridge.
Global industrial hemp market is expected to generate around USD 9.64 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of around 13.5% between 2019 and 2025. The need for industrial hemp products is increasing significantly on a daily basis, due to the rising health awareness among global consumers.
Global exports and imports of some hemp products amount to only $42 million, offering huge opportunities for growth. With its easy cultivation and vast environmental and economic potential, industrial hemp cultivation can be the way forward for the growth of sustainable value chains in local and regional markets for many developing countries.
