Dakota Hemp Building Second Processing Center Near Wakonda

(Wakonda, SD) — South Dakota’s hemp industry keeps growing — literally and economically. Dakota Hemp is building a new processing center near Wakonda, making it just the second one in the state. South Dakota already leads the nation in hemp production, and the plants are thriving with some reaching over ten feet tall. Dakota Hemp plans to turn those stalks into fiber and other materials used in everything from bioplastics to building supplies. Company leaders say hemp grows fast, shades the soil, and holds real promise for farmers.
