Moreover, its deep root system helps prevent soil erosion, improves soil health, and enhances carbon sequestration, contributing to soil regeneration. Additionally, hemp's ability to grow in diverse climates and soil types reduces the pressure on over-farmed land. In line with this, as industries seek to reduce their environmental impact, hemp’s versatility is being recognized in the production of eco-friendly products such as biodegradable plastics, sustainable fabrics, and construction materials. Furthermore, increasing consumer and corporate demand for sustainable products positions hemp as a key solution in addressing environmental challenges, further supporting the market growth.
