Substitution of fiber hemp for corn did not affect soil greenhouse gas emissions from a Kentucky cropping system

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Industrial hemp's return to American agriculture has been accompanied by claims of the crop's carbon neutrality, primarily due to its commercial applications. While carbon can be sequestered within products made with hemp fiber, there is little empirical evidence quantifying greenhouse gas contributions from the crop's production.

Acid Sulfite Pulping of Hemp: Effects of Processing Conditions on Lyocell Pulp Quality

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 16, Page 3364-3381, 15 August 2026.
Industrial hemp is emerging as a promising renewable source for next‐generation textile fibers. This study evaluates whether acid sulfite pulping can produce hemp‐based dissolving pulp suitable for lyocell manufacturing. While the process is historically linked to increased cellulose accessibility, it did not achieve the low lignin content and ...
