Hemp requires no pesticides or fertilizers and much less water than other crops.
Hemp grows quickly (70 to 110 days) producing crops once a year, unlike trees
which take many years to grow to a usable size. Hemp uses minimal nutrients from
the soil and hemps long roots aerate the soil, leaving it rich for future crops.
Hemp fiber can be used to make a stronger wood substitute for paper, fine cloth,
canvas and can be whitened using less environmentally harmful chemicals than are
used to make paper from trees. • Approximately 25% of all insecticides and more
than 10% of the pesticides used in the world are used to grow cotton.
• It
takes 1/3 lb. of pesticides and fertilizers to produce enough cotton to make
just one t-shirt.
• Organically grown cotton uses beneficial insects and
biological and cultural practices to control pests and build strong soil.
•
Each year, non-organic cotton producers around the world use nearly $2.6 billion
worth of pesticides.
