“Hemp for Victory” WWII Era Hemp Production

Posted: February 26th, 2007 @ 5:28pm (1 year, 6 months ago) by Alex Filed Under: Documentary, Videos

Here is an 11-minute documentary on World War II era hemp production. This video shows the amazing disparity between the government’s current-day stance compared to earlier in the 20th century.

This video covers the growing, harvesting, production and many uses of commercial grade hemp. Unforunately, this extremely useful plant has been regulated by the government almost as strictly as marijuana, just because of its similarities.

Still, as with the medical marijuana movement, there is a groundswell of support that is slowly bringing the issue of wide-range commercial hemp production to the political spotlight.
