Maximize fiber, hurd, or seed yield for uses such as textiles, construction, and biofuels.
Maximize cannabinoid content (mainly CBD) for medicinal and wellness products.
Tall, slender plants with minimal branching; selected for strong, long fibers or seed production.
Bushier plants with more branches and flowers, where cannabinoids are concentrated.
Seeds are sown densely to encourage upward growth and reduce branching, optimizing fiber quality.
Plants are spaced farther apart to allow for branching and larger flower development.
Lower management intensity; fewer inputs; less focus on pest control due to lower-value end product.
Higher management intensity; removal of male plants to prevent pollination and maximize cannabinoid content; more attention to disease and pest control.
Mechanical harvesting and decortication to separate fiber and hurd; focus on stalks.
Careful harvesting of flowers and buds; specialized extraction processes for cannabinoids like CBD/THC.
Compliance with THC limits (<0.3%); less regulatory scrutiny on processing.
Strict compliance with THC limits, frequent testing, and higher regulatory costs due to the potential for THC contamination.
Construction materials, textiles, bioplastics, animal bedding, biofuels.
Oils, tinctures, edibles, topicals, and other wellness products.
