only dioecious cultivars of hemp were grown in Poland. Since 1956 the
work has begun at the Institute of Natural Fibers (INF) to obtain
monoecious cultivars. The first Polish monoecious cultivar of
hemp—Bialobrzeskie—was registered in 1968. Further breeding work
focused on straw yield and fiber content increase and reduction of ?9THC
content. The further work resulted in 1985 in registration of cultivar
Beniko, which was developed at the INF Research Station in Wojciechow.
Beniko has higher (by about 2%) fiber content than that of
Bialobrzeskie cultivar and high yields while the trace
tetrahydrocannabinol content (?9THC< 0.2%) poses no
"narcotic threat". Beniko is also characterized by high degree of
monoeciousness and yielding stability in respect of straw and seed.
High economic value of this cultivar resulted in cultivar enrollment in
Polish National List of Varieties of Agricultural and Vegetable Plants
in Poland as well as in Commonwealth Catalogue of Cultivar Plants
(CCA). Breeding work that lasted more than twenty years resulted in
development of maintenance breeding method for hemp. This method allows
both maintaining basic economics of the cultivar and systematic
improvement of these features. This method allowed for obtaining the
cultivar Beniko, which is competitive to the best European cultivars.
Additionally, the breeding research is carried out at the INF to obtain
new cultivars suitable for different uses of industrial hemp.
