The industrial hemp market refers to the global industry involved in the cultivation, processing, and commercialization of hemp plants, specifically the low THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) varieties. Hemp is a versatile crop utilized for centuries, including fiber production, food and nutritional products, and even medicinal applications.

Historically, hemp has been grown for its strong fibers, which produce textiles, paper, rope, and other durable materials. However, with technological advancements and changing regulations worldwide, the industrial hemp market has experienced significant growth and diversification in recent years.

The market growth of hemp is driven by several factors, including its advantages in bio-based fabrics, biofuel applications, expanding usage in the food sector, and manufacturing programs. Hemp fabric offers numerous benefits, such as high absorbency, mold resistance, insulation, and resistance to harmful UV radiation. When blended with silk, linen, and cotton fabrics, hemp fabric provides durable solutions with consistently high quality and softness. The demand for hemp materials is expected to increase as the range of bio-based materials for manufacturing applications, such as geotextiles and pools, continues to expand.

Moreover, prominent industry players are actively involved in launching hemp programs to support farmers and drive market growth. In June 2020, Mississippi lawmakers passed legislation to legalize hemp cultivation. In line with this, in May 2021, Hemp, Inc. announced the establishment of the Mississippi Industrial Hemp Association, which would initiate a pilot program to aid farmers in legally growing hemp. The program offers valuable resources such as access to seeds and equipment and support with processing and distribution. These initiatives significantly contribute to the market's growth by facilitating the expansion of hemp cultivation and enabling farmers to navigate the industry effectively.

As a renewable source, hemp fiber also finds applications in diverse industries such as construction, animal bedding, agriculture, furniture, and automotive sectors. Moreover, the increasing use of hemp fiber in the production of biofuels and bioplastics is anticipated to further drive its demand in the future. Delta Agriculture, a prominent manufacturer, and supplier of raw hemp products in the country, announced the launch of its hemp fiber line in July 2021, marking its shift from being producer of hemp flower to a full-service manufacturing hemp supplier.
