Hemp Marijuana Facts

Hemp vs Soy

When comparing the protein of hemp plants and soy plants, you will get more protein from soy, but the quality of hemp protein is better. Considering how well the plant grows agriculturally, we may see more hemp plants grown in the future. Hemp plants are UV-B light resistant, unlike soy plants, so as the ozone continues to be depleted, hemp plants are going to survive much better than soy plants will. We may wind up in a situation where we need to grow hemp plants for survival, much as different civilizations have done in the past. If there were not so many political factors in place currently, many people in under-developed countries who are currently starving could take advantage of hemp’s benefits. Sometimes growth is halted by the use of the term “marijuana” while other times it is stopped because the farmers have to grow plants to produce heroin and cocaine by force of local drug lords. Either way the shortage could be ended if modern techniques were able to be taught by the Peace Corps for farming hemp seeds.
