Abstract: A method and system for processing whole hemp stalks is disclosed. The method and system use an entirety of the whole hemp stalks in producing the particulate hemp such that the particulate hemp comprises both bast fiber and shire of the original whole hemp stalks. Additionally, hemp crumbs or crumbles may be processed from whole hemp stalks, or from particulate hemp which is larger than the hemp crumbs such as hemp pellets. The hemp crumbs may be formed by crushing the hemp pellets.

Abstract: Oil is extracted from processed hemp which is better suited for transportation than whole hemp stalks particularly when oil extraction and initial processing of the hemp from the whole hemp stalks is performed at separate facilities. For example, the processed hemp may be characterized in that it was pelletized as part of its processing from the whole hemp stalks. Used processed hemp lacking/deprived of oil that is generated from the step of extracting the cannabinoid oil may be reused in a vendible product, for example where the lack of oil does not alter performance of the hemp in use of that vendible product.
