Thanks, that was informative. It appears you are correct about food shortages. My original comment was incorrect.
However, I do foresee that climate change will have impacts.
Also... I read an interesting article yesterday about how using hemp to create biofuel would be 5-6 times more efficient than using corn. But first the government has to legalize the hemp industry, which it won't do because it could undercut many industries.
Doubt it. That’s cellulosic ethanol. Much more costly than simply converting starch or sugar to ethanol.
And hemp isn’t anything special when you have the process down. It would work for wood chips, sawdust, corn stalks, or the infamous switchgrass.
