They are not even close if I look at the pictures Multi provided.

Some of the pictures on the 'net sure look like weed to me. I would call the sheriff if I found it on my land...

Geez......bet the inmates laughed with every cut. Ignorance with power......dangerous, dangerous thing.

I read about this earlier. Kenaf can grow in a lot of diffent forms. What the big question I wonder is why would you grow it as a food plot? Looks about the same material as hemp. Good only to make paper or rope.

Deer love hemp and maryjane as well. I know a couple of dope growers and they hate deer with a passion.

From Troll's link:

Nutritional and yield evaluation of kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) as a potential high quality forage for the southeastern United States. Jeffrey E. Hollowell, for M. Sc. 1997.

It apparently has some kind of livestock forage use.

The folks at UK were growing some at the Experimental Station a few years' back, and they just knew a black helicopter would come and cut it all down. It must bear some similarities, in shape or height or something. The latin name sure is similar. (see above)

I learnt something. Reckon they can eat, floss their teeth and be happy all at the same time!:D

I'm glad that I grow mainly clovers and rape!!! There is little danger of them mixing that up(I hope) :D
