An opinion piece by Jim Maas of the Libertarian Party of Wisconsin blasts current federal subsidies for farmers but singles industrial hemp out for praise. Maas writes that “Hemp has thousands of uses. Besides fibers for paper and textiles, it can be used for biodegradable plastics, health food and fuel. Hemp requires little to no pesticides, replenishes soil with nutrients and nitrogen, controls erosion of the topsoil and produces a lot of oxygen. The downside? Our government prohibits its use.” Click Here for the complete Wausau Daily Herald article.
