search our site home publications Industrial Hemp in the United States: Status and Market Potential AGES No. (AGES001) 43 pp, January 2000 Industrial hemp has been the focus of official interest in several States. However, hemp and marijuana are different varieties of Cannabis sativa, which is classified as a controlled substance in the United States. With Canada now allowing hemp production, questions have been raised about the demand for hemp products. U.S. markets for hemp fiber (specialty textiles, paper, and composites) and seed (in food or crushed for oil) are, and will likely remain, small, thin markets. Uncertainty about longrun demand for hemp products and the potential for oversupply discounts the prospects for hemp as an economically viable alternative crop for American farmers.

May 2004 Manitoba Soil Fertility Guide Common fertilizers and their Characteristics Table 10. Common fertilizers and their characteristics Name Nutrient Physical Properties Comments Fertilizers used primarily as sources of nitrogen: Anhydrous Ammonia Compressed gas High affinity for water Pungent odour Corrosive Must be placed at 4-6 in. depth. Hazardous (safety precautions are required). High pressure equipment required. Urea* Granular Applied prior to or after seeding. Much less corrosive than other nitrogen fertilizers. Avoid mixing with ammonium nitrate as attraction for moisture causes mixture to turn to slush. More subject to volatilization losses than ammonium nitrate when not incorporated in the soil. Volatilization losses are enhanced when urea is broadcast without incorporation under warm and windy conditions on alkaline, calcareous or drying soils. Nitrogen Solution (UAN) Solution 50% of the nitrogen is in the urea form and 50% is in the ammonium nitrate form contains 0.79 lb N/litre or 3.57 lb N/Imp gal.
