... there was an agricultural hemp processing facility and all that bast fiber, it just sits in a high bay, and they don't know what to do with it,So if they process hemp and have no use for the fiber, what are they selling? Hmmm.

It seems this is the outer parts of the stem and the small branches/leaves ... it is likely the industrial processors are only interested in the long uninterrupted inner fibers. I would think that the short fibers would be useful compressed into a cardboard like packaging product or perhaps fiber flower pots (like the coconut fiber pots)..
