The aim of this study is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the current state of the global market for industrial hemp fiber (hemp, hurds) and assess its production
and application prospects amid global environmental and economic changes. The research employs statistical analysis, comparative studies, and an evaluation of legislative and market trends based on data from international organizations and scientific publications. The results highlight the revival of interest in industrial hemp as a sustainable agro-resource, with applications in textiles, construction, biofuels, and pharmaceuticals. Leading countries (China, the USA, EU nations) are expanding cultivation areas and investing in processing technologies. In Russia, production is growing due to state support, though challenges such as a lack of specialized machinery persist. The conclusions emphasize hemp’s potential to reduce anthropogenic environmental impact and its role in import substitution. Future industry growth depends on regulatory harmonization, increased investment, and innovative processing technologies.
