Anemophily or wind pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen is distributed by wind. Approximately 12% of plants across the globe are benefiting from anemophily, including cereal crops like rice and corn and other prominent crop plants like wheat, rye, barley, and oats. Cannabis is known to be anemophilous. Anemophilous plants rely on air movement for pollen transfer from male to female plants, sometimes across long distances.
