I suspect this is a mistake as silk is obviously not a crop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.215.133.67 (talk) 15:12, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The two articles should definitely be merged, would just like to note that the title "Industrial crops" should be kept, and "Non-food crops" discarded. Industrial crop is the term used in the agricultural sciences - as examples, see the Journal of Industrial Crops and Products and the Association for the Advancement of Industrial Crops -- Oosting (talk) 18:01, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A few years later, but I support this merger. Terms are highly related and the content would fit well into a single article.Dialectric (talk) 05:32, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Waited long enough, surely. Done. Now the article needs proper sourcing, and expansion from those sources. Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:45, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
