Industrial hemp, Cannabis sativa, is one of the first crops to be cultivated by humankind. Despite being largely banned from cultivation during the previous century, legalization under the Farm Bill of 2018 allowed for the cultivation, research, and usage of the crop and is leading to the actualization of its many uses ranging from fiber production to nutraceuticals. With this the economic/agronomic value of the crop is projected to be 11.3 billion USD by 2030.
