Ngokombiko wakamuva othi “National Hemp Report” okhishwe uMnyango Wezolimo wase-US (USDA) , naphezu kwemizamo eyandayo eyenziwa yizifundazwe namanye amalungu eCongress yokuvimbela imikhiqizo ye-hemp edliwayo, imboni isakhula ngokuphawulekayo ngo-2024. Ngo-2024, ukutshalwa kwe-hemp yase-US kwafinyelela kumahektare angu-45,294, ukukhuphuka okungu-64% kusuka ku-2024 inani lemakethe kuya ku-$ 4 million, ngenkathi isamba semakethe ye-2024 .
Ochwepheshe bezimboni baphawule ukuthi yize lesi sikhala singase siphakamise ukululama emakethe ye-CBD kulandela igagasi lokugunyazwa kwe-hemp ka-2018, iqiniso liyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu-futhi aliqinisekisi kangako.
Imininingwane ikhombisa ukuthi imbali ye-hemp yabalelwa cishe kukho konke ukukhula, okutshalwe kakhulu ukuze kukhiqizwe imikhiqizo ephuma ku-hemp edakayo engalawulwa. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-fiber hemp kanye ne-grain hemp yahlala emikhakheni enenani eliphansi namanani ehlayo, okugqamisa izikhala ezinkulu zengqalasizinda.
"Sibona ukwehlukana kwezimakethe," kusho uJoseph Carringer, umhlaziyi wezimboni eCanna Markets Group. "Ngakolunye uhlangothi, iTHC yokwenziwa (njengeDelta-8) iyadlondlobala, kodwa lokhu kukhula kungokwesikhashana futhi kuyingozi ngokomthetho. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, nakuba i-fiber ne-grain hemp kuzwakala kahle ngokwethiyori, kusantula ukusebenza kahle kwezomnotho ekusebenzeni."
Umbiko we-USDA upenda isithombe somnotho we-hemp othembela kakhulu ** ekuguqulweni kwe-cannabinoid okuyimpikiswano kune-"hemp yangempela" (i-fiber nokusanhlamvu), njengoba izifundazwe kanye nabenzi bomthetho bezama ukukhawulela ama-cannabinoids okwenziwa.
Imbali Ye-Hemp Iyaqhubeka Nokuqhuba Imboni
Ngo-2024, imbali ye-hemp yahlala iyinjini yezomnotho embonini. Abalimi bavune amahektha ayi-11,827 (abakhuphuke ngo-60% besuka kumahektha angama-7,383 ngo-2023), bathola amaphawundi ayizigidi ezingama-20.8 (ukunyuka ngo-159% kusuka kumaphawundi ayizigidi eziyi-8 ngo-2023). Naphezu kokukhuphuka okubukhali kokukhiqizwa, amanani abambelele ngokuqinile, aqhubekisela inani lemakethe eliphelele lafika ku-$ 415 million (ukwanda kwama-43% kusuka ku-$ 302 million ngo-2023).
Izivuno ezimaphakathi nazo zaba ngcono, zikhuphuka zisuka ku-1,088 lbs/acre ngo-2023 zaya ku-1,757 lbs/acre ngo-2024, okubonisa intuthuko kufuzo, izindlela zokulima, noma izimo zokukhula.
Kusukela uMthethosivivinywa Wezolimo ka-2018 usemthethweni i-hemp, abalimi bayikhulisele izimbali, manje esebalelwa ku-93% womkhiqizo usuwonke. Ngenkathi imbali ye-hemp ingathengiswa ngokuqondile, isetshenziswa kakhulu ukukhishwa ukukhiqiza imikhiqizo yabathengi ye-cannabinoid efana ne-CBD. Kodwa-ke, ukusetshenziswa kwayo kokugcina sekuguqukele kokuphuma kudakayo njengeDelta-8 THC, ehlanganiswe kumalebhu avela ku-CBD. I-lophole yenhlangano ivumele le mikhiqizo ukuthi igweme imithetho ye-cannabis-yize lokhu kuvalwa ngokushesha njengoba izifundazwe eziningi kanye nabenzi bomthetho behlehla.
I-Fiber Hemp: I-Acreage Up 56%, Kodwa Amanani Ayehla
Ngo-2024, abalimi base-US bavune amahektha ayi-18,855 e-fiber hemp (enyuke ngo-56% isuka kumahektha ayi-12,106 ngo-2023), bakhiqiza amaphawundi ayizigidi ezingama-60.4 wefayibha (ukwanda okungama-23% kusuka kumaphawundi ayizigidi ezingama-49.1 ngo-2023). Nokho, izivuno ezimaphakathi zehle kakhulu zaya ku-3,205 lbs/acre (zehle ngo-21% zisuka ku-4,053 lbs/acre ngo-2023), futhi amanani aqhubeka nokwehla.
Ngenxa yalokho, inani lemali eliphelele le-hemp fiber lehle laya ku-$11.2 million (lehle ngo-3% lisuka ku-$11.6 million ngo-2023). Ukunqanyulwa phakathi kokukhiqizwa okukhuphukayo kanye nenani elinciphayo kubonisa ubuthakathaka obuqhubekayo kumthamo wokucubungula, ukuvuthwa kochungechunge lokuhlinzeka, kanye nentengo yemakethe. Ngisho nokukhiqizwa kwe-fiber okwandisiwe, ukuntuleka kwengqalasizinda eqinile yokusebenzisa lezi zinto zokusetshenziswa kunciphisa amandla abo omnotho.
I-Grain Hemp: Incane kodwa Iqinile
I-Grain hemp yakhula kancane ngo-2024. Abalimi bavune amahektha angu-4,863 (akhuphuke ngo-22% ukusuka kumahektha angu-3,986 ngo-2023), akhiqiza amaphawundi ayizigidi ezingu-3.41 (okukhuphuka ngo-10% kusuka kumaphawundi ayizigidi ezingu-3.11 ngo-2023). Kodwa-ke, isivuno sehle safinyelela ku-702 lbs/acre (phansi sisuka ku-779 lbs/acre ngo-2023), kuyilapho amanani ahlala ezinzile.
Noma kunjalo, inani eliphelele le-grain hemp likhuphuke ngo-13% laya ku-$2.62 million, lisuka ku-$2.31 million ngonyaka odlule. Nakuba kungeyona impumelelo, lokhu kumelela igxathu eliqinile eliya phambili esigabeni lapho i-US isasele ngemuva kwemikhiqizo yaseCanada.
Ukukhiqizwa Kwembewu Kubona Ukukhula Okuthuthukayo
IHemp etshalwe imbewu ibone ukwanda kwamaphesenti amakhulu ngo-2024. Abalimi bavune amahektha ayi-2,160 (akhuphuke ngo-61% ukusuka kumahektha ayi-1,344 ngo-2023), akhiqiza amaphawundi embewu angu-697,000 (ehle ngo-7% isuka ku-751,000 amaphawundi ngo-2023 yehle isuka ku-3cre isivuno/isivuno lbs/acre).
Naphezu kokwehla kokukhiqizwa, amanani enyuka kakhulu, okwenza inani eliphelele lembewu ye-hemp lafinyelela ku-$16.9 million—ukwanda okungama-482% kusuka ku-$2.91 million ngo-2023. Lokhu kusebenza okuqinile kubonisa isidingo esikhulayo sofuzo olukhethekile kanye nezimila ezithuthukisiwe njengoba imakethe ivuthwa.
Ukungaqiniseki Okulawulayo Kuyanda
Lo mbiko uphakamisa ukuthi ikusasa lemakethe ye-hemp edliwayo lihlala lingaqinisekile ngenxa yokuhlehla kwezomthetho. Ngasekuqaleni kwale nyanga, ikomidi le-Congressional labamba ukulalelwa kwecala ne-FDA, lapho uchwepheshe wemboni ye-hemp exwayise ngokuthi ukwanda kwemikhiqizo ye-hemp edakayo engalawulwa kudala izinsongo ezikhulayo kuwo womabili amazinga wombuso kanye ne-federal-kushiya imakethe ye-hemp yase-US "icela" ukwengamela umbuso.
UJonathan Miller we-US Hemp Roundtable wakhomba isisombululo esingaba khona somthetho: umthethosivivinywa we-bipartisan owethulwe ngonyaka odlule nguSenator Ron Wyden (D-OR) ozosungula uhlaka lokulawula lukahulumeni lwama-cannabinoids asuselwa ku-hemp. Lo mthethosivivinywa uzovumela izifundazwe ukuthi zizibekele eyazo imithetho yemikhiqizo efana ne-CBD ngenkathi inika amandla i-FDA ukuthi isebenzise izindinganiso zokuphepha.
I-USDA yethula okokuqala Umbiko Kazwelonke We-Hemp ngo-2021, yenza ucwaningo lwaminyaka yonke futhi ibuyekeza uhlu lwayo lwemibuzo ngo-2022 ukuze ihlole impilo yezomnotho yemakethe yasekhaya ye-hemp.
