Industrial hemp, a versatile and sustainable crop, offers transformative potential across multiple facets of aviation: sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), carbon-neutral manufacturing materials, and carbon offset programs. Hemp\u2019s ability to grow rapidly, its high yield of usable biomass, and its adaptability to marginal lands make it an excellent candidate for reducing aviation\u2019s carbon footprint.
