I expect it to be a gold-rush kind of deal, with a change in government policy. As you might imagine, the paper industry is not thrilled with the idea, but they would be better served in managing the change by remaining the paper industry, just with the vast majority of their paper being hemp paper.

There is also a guaranteed market for hemp paper in publishing, because it is pH neutral, unlike acid washed pulp which last only fifty years or less unless treated. Hemp paper is good for 200+ years, so is much better for valuable books.
