It can be planted repeatedly on the same land, and is often used as a “rotation crop” to heal the soil between growing other crops. Hemp produces 250% more fiber than cotton and 600% more fiber than flax on the same land, and has the highest yield per acre of any natural fiber. ...
Estimated crop yields were 19 tons acre year (dry weight) for CHG stalks that could be used for building construction and 16 tons acre year (dry weight) for leaves could be used as animal forage. Approximately, 1.7 tons of seeds could be harvested per acre per year from variety CHY. ...
The illegal narcotics trade can be held at bay if the agriculture/industrial sector is made aware of the commercial benefits of Hemp. It is a high yield crop, one acre of Hemp produces twice as much oil as one acre of peanuts and nearly four times as much fibre pulp as an acre of tr...

Dual-purpose hemp varieties like Wojko, Joey or Anka all yield good seed production. Harvesting in the field is timed by rows, each 4 foot wide section processing 64 stalks, 5 feet tall every second, yielding approx. 1 ton of ribbon per acre. The machine is easily scaled by adding more...

It also should be noted that cultivating industrial hemp for both grain and straw leads to a yield per acre for both straw and grain which is substantial but is less than that achieved for grain when hemp is grown for grain alone, or straw when industrial hemp is grown for straw alone. ...
