Hemp a 20'ies 70' ies plant.Let's cut out the cannabis/thc and what have we got; materials for rope, animalfood. For the modern dutch farmer it means: strainplant fast growing plant that makes the soil carbonrich and moist, bottomtemperture get' s down with 30%(spain, midwest summers can dry out the soil easely) besides these benefits your insecticide use will be lower.

I would like to see more people recognize this and also use the English word.
