Much of Canada’s forestry production【65】making pulp and paper. According to the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association, Canada【66】34%of the world’s wood pulp and 49% of its newsprint paper. If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be【67】. Recently, a possible【68】way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp. Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be【69】paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope.

Nowadays, ships’ cables are usually made from wire or synthetic fibres, but scientists are now suggesting that the cultivation of hemp should be【73】for the production of paper and pulp. According to its proponents, four-times as【74】paper can be produced from land using hemp rather than trees, and many environmentalists believe that the【75】scale cultivation of hemp could reduce the pressure on Canada’s forests.
