It wasn’t that long ago when food retailers were hesitant to sell products made with hemp seed or hemp seed oil for fear of reprisals from the U.S. DEA or other regulators. Today, hemp is considered a “superfood,” and from plant-based hemp milk and veggie burgers to hemp hearts and sports nutrition bars, you can find nutrient-dense hemp foods pretty much everywhere. In addition, demand keeps growing for hemp grain, high in protein and essential fatty acids. Hemp is gaining attention, too, as a nutrient-rich feed source for livestock and other animals, promising to open a valuable animal feed market for hemp producers. Learn about the best varieties, processes and trends in hemp grain production, as well as industry and consumer trends for business and product ideas.
