Increasing legalization to cultivate industrial hemp is expected to propel the growth of the hemp fiber market going forward.Industrial hemp is obtained from the plant species Cannabis sativa and has been used globally to produce a variety of industrial and consumer products.
Industrial hemp is grown for its fiber and seeds, which are used for the manufacture of hemp fiber.As a result, increasing legalization of industrial hemp helps to increase the production of hemp fiber.
For instance, in January 2021, the US Department of Agriculture announced the final rule regulating the production of hemp in the United States.The rules are issued under Section 10113 of the law.
This has implicitly legalized the manufacturing and selling of Delta-8 THC, which contains minor psychoactive substances similar to the legally banned Delta-9 (marijuana). Therefore, the increasing legalization of cultivating industrial hemp is driving the growth of the hemp fiber market.
