Panda Biotech, the Dallas-based corporation developing a high-throughput hemp fiber processing facility, has received another key extension to reach job creation goals established by the Wichita Falls, Texas City Council.

The facility is purportedly fitted with decortication machinery and secondary processing equipment already.
