| Author: | Merfield, C. N. |

| Item Type: | Monograph |
| Abstract: | This report is aimed at farmers, processors and the sections of government involved in the reintroduction
of industrial hemp. It aims to provide, assuming no prior knowledge, background
information on hemp and the issues surrounding it. It analyses the current political and legal
situation; and estimates the potential economic, social and environmental costs and benefits for
New Zealand, and makes recommendations based on that analysis. There are detailed briefings on
the history, biology, agronomy, and end products of industrial hemp. These provide important
technical information and support the analysis and recommendations of the report. These can be
left unread if the reader’s main focus is policy issues. |
| Description: | The New Zealand Kellogg Rural Leaders Programme develops emerging agribusiness leaders to help shape the future of New Zealand agribusiness and rural affairs.
