Where did you find that about hemp? I can only find info about recreational marijuana and can’t find anything about agricultural or industrial hemp. And the recreational marijuana numbers I could find are all just like “top 30 strains to try today”
Leafly lists 6,822 cannabis strains. Though ‘strains’ or more aptly cultivars are often not reflective of the actual underlying chemical nature of the plant [source]. They are ultimately not very meaningful in general.
Based on this database, Europe has 104 varieties of hemp registered.
Though potatoes and cannabis aren’t really a fair comparison for many reasons. There are a lot of different species of potatoes with major chromosomal differences but cannabis only has 3 species.
Yeah its a major problem in particular with the Idaho Gold being far and a way the most commonly grown potato to meet McDonald’s demand for long fries that stick up out of the little fry nest
From what I can find there are 700 strains of cannabis
There’s 4000 varieties of potato

Canada has 87 but there is probably overlap.

It’s also not really fair because potatos are one of the easiest plants to monocrop with how you can propagate them without seeds.
