In this June 23, 2016, photo, farmer Will Cabaniss stands with his crop on his 20-acre hemp farm in Pueblo, Colo. Three years into the nation's hemp experiment, the crop's hazy market potential is starting to come into focus. Most of it is being pressed for therapeutic oils, not processed into rope or fabric or more traditional products. Authorized for research and experimental growth in the 2014 Farm Bill, hemp is being grown this year on about 6,900 acres nationwide, according to industry tallies based on state reports.
