Hemp, Inc. (HEMP) Applauds Missouri as State Becomes 40th in United States to Pass Hemp Legalization Bill

 Hemp, Inc. (OTC PINK: HEMP), a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with the largest multipurpose industrial hemp processing facility in the western hemisphere, announced today the company applauds Missouri for becoming the fortieth state in the nation to legalize hemp.

In one of his last official acts in office on June 1, then-Governor of Missouri, Eric Greitens, approved  House Bill 2034, which legalizes industrial hemp farming in the state. “The new law legalizes the cultivation of industrial hemp and all products, including [cannabidiol] CBD, made from it,” according to Hemp Magazine. “The legislation also establishes a state hemp pilot program in accordance with the 2014 Farm Bill. HB 2034 is scheduled to take effect in August of this year.”

Rep. Paul Curtman, R-Washington, the bill’s sponsor, told the Missourian, “Right now those manufacturers have to bring in their industrial hemp from out of state or out of the country, so this is going to help Missouri keep our economic dollars in Missouri rather than sending them out of state or out of the country.”

Hemp, Inc. CEO Bruce Perlowin said, “We are proud to be on the frontlines of the rapidly growing multi-billion dollar industrial hemp industry. There are now more states with industrial hemp legislation than without. Allowing farmers to have access to this viable crop is the right thing to do to spur local economies and create jobs.”

As Missouri and other states move toward adopting hemp legislation, companies seeking to enter or further develop their footprint in the industrial hemp marketplace are aligning with Hemp, Inc. for the company’s proven expertise and state-of-the-art hemp processing and manufacturing infrastructure in Spring Hope, North Carolina. Hemp, Inc.’s 85,000 square foot hemp processing and manufacturing facility has been operational since August, 2017.

Hemp, Inc.’s consulting agreement with HQ Global Education, Inc. (OTC: HQGE), a scientific research development company, entails that Hemp, Inc. will provide consulting services in an effort to help HQ Global Education, Inc. expand into the hemp CBD industry. In addition, Hemp, Inc. also recently announced that the company encourages large scale companies to secure their hemp biomass now before Hemp, Inc.’s supply runs out.

Hemp, Inc. also recently announced that its strategic hemp growing partner, Veteran Village Kins Community Arizona, Inc., had completed installation of the solar and wind-powered energy system for its 500-acre Veteran Village Kins Community in Golden Valley, Arizona. The Veteran Village Kins Community is designed to grow hemp and produce CBD products to benefit veterans as well as generate revenue for Hemp, Inc., the Veteran Village, and individual veterans living in the community.

Dozens of master growers, from Oregon, Colorado, California, Kentucky, North Carolina, Nevada, and of course, Arizona companies and organizations have expressed an interest in pursuing a joint venture with Hemp, Inc. to each grow industrial hemp on the 300 fenced acres in Arizona as part of “The Great United American Hemp Project.” Interested master growers, from around the country, should contact Project Manager, Dwight Jory at ecogold22@gmail.com.
