Petition Remove all constraints on growing industrial hemp in UK

More details

Remove all constraints on growing industrial hemp in UK. Strict licensing requirements severely limit opportunities for growing this extraordinarily beneficial crop. Allowing British farmers to grow this pest free, self fertilising cash crop will provide fuel, paper, fibre, nutritious food, high quality fibre, low carbon building materials and many environmental and employment benefits, Industrial hemp contains only insignificant amounts of THC and cannot be used as a recreational drug and poses no danger to the public.
