Hemp Joins Wisconsin Money Crops List
Wisconsin researchers report hemp as a profitable cash crop with yields around 2 000 pounds of high quality fiber per acre, valued over 100 dollars. Last year’s fiber sold at six cents a pound for the long fiber and about five to four and a half cents for the short fiber. Much of the product ships to Kentucky for processing. About 400 to 500 acres in two counties will be planted this year. Hemp trial near Marshfield shows promising results.
