That type of hemp is not what they would extract CBD from. That is pretty much all hand harvest. There is a type you can combine and get very minimal amounts of CBD from but its pretty much experimental I think at this point. Normally you do not want the plant to produce seed to get CBD.
I grew some for grain this year. My variety was short. The grain is about 10 more times valuable than the fiber. If you harvest for both as they are doing there in one operation , you let the stalk lay in the field, not to dry but to rhet or basically rot until the fiber begins to separate from the hurd or woody part of the stalk. Usually about 3-6 weeks. You can also leave the remaining stalk standing to winter rhet and cut it in the spring. My harvest went well for the grain even though I had a pretty poor crop. The local college doing hemp research and another farmer working with them grew some better looking crops but so far have been having problems harvesting. My old gleaner far outperformed their combine. I let them use my old all-crop 72 to do one field and even that was far better than their combine. They have some that is 8-9 feet tall and are asking me if I want to try it. Im thinking about it but have a feeling that wont go well being that tall. Plus the weather is not cooperating now anyways.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
