Narrative

Donation on 20240725 contained 1 seed packet.

Donor Narrative: Collected in Samtay (Xamtay / Samtai) district in winter 2023 at latitude 20° N in Northeast Laos. A Hmong hemp landrace cultivated by Hmong villages in the highlands of Houapanh Province, Northeast Laos. Traditional Hmong cannabis culture involves cultivating hemp for fibre, which is used in textiles, including clothing, shoes, and funeral garments. Side note: The widespread belief among westerners that the Hmong traditionally cultivate ganja is reflective of very recent social changes among Hmong communities that have migrated south into Central Laos and North Thailand, where they find themselves in economically precarious and socially marginalized positions. In so far as there can be said to be a Hmong drug crop, this is poppy, which some villages began cultivating in the 19th Century, mostly to answer demand from urban China and cities such as Vientiane and Bangkok..
