Hemp... plant of the family Cannabaceae and its fibre, one of the bast fibre group... Fibres are obtained by subjecting the stalks to a series of operations... The fibre... is usually yellowish, greenish, or a dark brown or gray and, because it is not easily bleached to sufficiently light shades, is rarely dyed. It is strong and durable and is used for cordage, e. g., twine, yarn, rope, cable, and string; and for artificial sponges and such coarse fabrics as sacking(burlap) and canvas. In Italy some hemp receives special processing, producing whitish colour and attractive lustre, and is used to make fabric similar to linen. 4, record 2, English, - hemp
