In the 1940s Henry Ford built a hemp car but it was taken off the shelf because the steel and oil companies said "No he couldn't do that as it was uneconomic for them."

We are competing with low prices on the global market now. So optimising yields is super critical. 4. The Hemp Farm will buy seed and stalk from you on a contract basis. This needs to be organised in advance. 5. You can also have the option to grow and extract. For example we have an oil press, de-huller, flour mill and powder blending, machines all up and running this year. 6. Packaging and bottling is also coming. We will have Hemp Milk on the market by the end of this month, in 5 litre packaging and 1 litre for stores very soon. q Inside the Cannasouth Grow-op before the first research harvest in 2019 Click here to attend the Cannasouth Investor Relations Roadshow Dave Jordan with his familiar Hemp Farm hemp seed oil 26 27
