HempToday

H**pToday™ is a business-to-business media hub delivering news and services to the industrial h**p industry. In essence, these materials breathe.

H**p is one of the oldest, heartiest and most versatile plants on earth. It has been an important source of fibres, food and medicine throughout history. The industrial strain, known as cannabis sativa, produces fibre, oil and seeds. The entire plant can be processed into a wide range of raw materials such as pulp, paper, fuel, resins and wax. In the construction industry, variously processed h**p

is used as a main component in bricks, particle board, insulation, and h**pcrete, a concrete-like mixture that can be plastered or sprayed onto interior and exterior walls. H**p building materials reverse the damaging effects of greenhouse gases by locking up harmful CO2 emissions. They are also stronger and lighter than those used in traditional construction.

Peru opens draft h**p rules for consultation as industry eyes long-awaited start:
https://h**ptoday.net/peru-opens-draft-h**p-rules-for-consultation-as-industry-eyes-long-awaited-start/

Peru’s Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation (Midagri) has opened a 90-day public consultation on draft regulations to implement Law No. 32195, the framework for industrial h**p adopted late last year. The draft rules detail how h**p licenses, oversight, and compliance will be handled.

For Peru, the opening of public consultation is a significant milestone. But for investors and potential producers, the wait continues—underscoring the cautious, deliberate pace of h**p’s arrival in the country.

The consultation marks the latest step in a process that began in mid-2022, when Congressman Luis Angel Aragón Carreño of Acción Popular introduced a bill to exempt h**p from Peru’s narcotics law. That proposal envisioned a wide-ranging program under a 1.0% THC ceiling, legalizing all parts of the plant and permitting h**p’s use in food, cosmetics, packaging, textiles, biodegradable plastics, construction materials, and animal feed.

[SECOND IN A SERIES]

INTERVIEW: Marcel Dabdoub shares his path from real estate and startup investment into the industrial h**p sector, and how those experiences shaped the creation of BioPhil Fiber. Speaking at the NIHC Global Industrial H**p Fiber Summit at North Carolina State University’s Wilson College of Textiles, Dabdoub recounts early processing trials in Pennsylvania, key lessons learned, and how connecting with his partner David Camby set BioPhil’s course. He reflects on the company’s role in refining h**p processing to deliver high-quality fiber and hurd for a wide range of applications.

Think h**p is always carbon-negative? Not quite. The Sustainability Report 2025 finds that short-lived uses like packaging or bedding often release carbon back into the atmosphere within months. Long-lived products like h**pcrete or biocomposites? That’s where the real carbon savings happen.

Australian inquiry spotlights h**p’s promise for housing, farming, and climate goals:

Australia’s industrial h**p sector has been given a rare opportunity to define its future, with the Senate opening a national inquiry that will examine the crop’s role in agriculture, construction, and the wider economy.

Industry stakeholders believe h**p could help alleviate the country’s housing crisis by providing low-carbon building materials, while also bolstering a nascent h**p grain sector and positioning Australia as a global leader in sustainable farming.

H**p is but one victim in Trump’s gutting of Biden-era environmental programs:

Half a million dollars. That’s the scale of ambition left for h**p in Washington today. Democrat Sen. Amy Klobuchar is touting $500,000 set aside in an appropriations bill for h**p research in her state – Minnesota, if it survives the House and presidential signature.

Is this what the U.S. h**p industry is reduced to: hoping a fraction of a fraction of one percent of federal agricultural research spending actually makes it through the process?

The tragedy is that only months ago, h**p was included in one of the most promising federal initiatives in decades: the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities. That program—funded at $3.1 billion—allocated a modest but symbolically vital $35 million for h**p-specific projects.

Whichever path it travels, Texas appears determined to wipe out intoxicating h**p:
https://h**ptoday.net/whichever-path-it-travels-texas-appears-determined-to-wipe-out-intoxicating-h**p/

Texas lawmakers have renewed their push to outlaw h**p products containing THC, setting up another clash with Gov. Greg Abbott over how to rein in the state’s booming intoxicating h**p market. The Senate State Affairs Committee last week advanced Senate Bill 6 (SB 6), which would ban any amount of THC in h**p consumables — a move that would effectively wipe out intoxicating h**p products.

Abbott vetoed a similar bill in June, calling it “well-intentioned but legally flawed,” and has instead pressed for a regulatory framework modeled on alcohol and to***co controls. But both approaches appear headed toward the same outcome: intoxicating h**p products such as delta-8 THC and HHC would no longer have a place in Texas.

New report finds h**p’s environmental impact tied to system-wide supply chain design:

Industrial h**p’s climate and resource benefits can vary widely, depending on cultivation practices, processing methods, and supply chain design, according to a new U.S.-based report published today.

H**p & Sustainability, published by Canna Markets Group and H**pToday, also points to processing and transport as major emission sources, and notes there are limited recycling options for many h**p products.

The report evaluates h**p across four key areas: carbon sequestration, soil health, water use, and full lifecycle impacts. It draws on peer-reviewed research, government data, and lifecycle analyses to compare h**p’s environmental outcomes with those of other crops and materials.

Sustainability isn’t just about what happens in the field. Our new report shows that processing energy accounts for nearly half of h**p’s lifecycle emissions. Switching to renewable power isn’t optional — it’s the make-or-break factor for h**p’s green credentials.

Florida’s debate over ‘intoxicating h**p’ packaging masks deeper flaws in state rules:
https://h**ptoday.net/floridas-debate-over-intoxicating-h**p-packaging-masks-deeper-flaws-in-state-rules/

Florida regulators will take public comment today on a proposed rule aimed at keeping intoxicating h**p products out of the hands of children — an action long overdue. For years, the intoxicating h**p sector has relied on stall tactics and smokescreens to avoid clear limits on packaging that targets minors, even as evidence has mounted of unsafe, unregulated products flooding the market.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) is holding a workshop to advance a 2023 law designed to create at least a baseline of consumer protection while the larger fight over intoxicating h**p plays out.

In one scenario, such compounds — such as delta-8 THC, the most popular of the substances— would be treated like recreational ma*****na, which is not legal in Florida.

Cannabinoid firm’s takedown another ‘wake-up call’ in Italy’s treacherous h**p market:
https://h**ptoday.net/cannabinoid-firms-takedown-another-wake-up-call-in-italys-treacherous-h**p-market/

Italy’s escalating crackdown on h**p and CBD has hit Bologna-based Enecta, which saw its main e-commerce site disappear without warning earlier this year—an episode co-founder Jacopo Paolini said is another “wake-up call” for the sector.

Paolini said the takedown, which lasted two full months, was traced to a Ministry of Health Decree from the Directorate General for Animal Health, which alleged that a pet product sold on Enecta’s site contained THC.

“We’ve only ever sold one product for animals (Premium H**p Oil for Pets), and it doesn’t contain any THC. Lab tests confirm this,” Paolini told H**pToday.

In Italy, a website can be taken offline without prior notice, and that has the same effect as a commercial seizure.
