Research Posting: Summary and Value of Sources

I have found many reliable sources of information which I am trying to sort through and make sure it is relevant to my thesis.

This source gives background information on what Hemp is, the history, the requirements to grow, and the feasibility of growing Hemp in the United States from a purely economic point of view. It gives me an ideal starting point for more in depth research for what is important and relevant for my thesis.

Hemp as an Agricultural Commodity shows the difference in cultivating and growing Hemp compared to marijuana this will be helpful in refuting the idea that marijuana growers would plant and hide their crops inside a Hemp field. This report has all of its sources and many are of credible sites that I can reference for more information. This report also shows how Canada is regulating the product.
