Hemp Animal Feed Is Too Vital to Ignore in the U.S.
By Seth Boone, PanXchange
The industrial hemp plant offers a long list of potential animal feed inputs that could be readily derived from hemp in the United States today. From the entire stalk to the oil pressed from the seed, almost every part of the hemp plant has potential as a feed ingredient. As feed and roughage prices remain historically inflated, more states have entertained approving hemp for feed to supplement their local markets.
Hemp’s resurgence in American commerce, paired with extreme feed costs, provides the perfect conditions for hemp to regain its rightful role as a versatile and competitive feed ingredient. Now the sluggish pace of existing federal regulators may spur even more state legislators to move ahead of the feds and grant the feed market access to hemp.
