PALM BEACH, Florida, Nov. 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --  CBD is quickly becoming a multi-billion-dollar business. In fact, sales of products containing CBD are expected to grow 700% in 2019 year over year, says the Brightfield Group. "The CBD market has been growing rapidly, but we will see unprecedented growth in 2019," Brightfield Managing Director, Bethany Gomez, explains. "The bulk of this growth is coming from large retailers like CVS, Walgreens, and Kroger entering the market and providing that availability to consumers." Better, more Americans are supportive of cannabis legalization. In fact, according to a Gallup survey, 66% of Americans are in favor of legalization. That's up from just 60% in 2016. In addition, cannabis has become a major platform for presidential candidates, as we near the 2020 presidential election. That's leading to a wide range of opportunity for companies including CBD Global Sciences, Inc. (CSE: CBDN), Curaleaf Holdings Inc. (CSE:CURA) (OTCQX:CURLF), CV Sciences Inc. (OTCQB:CVSI), HEXO Corporation (NYSE:HEXO)(TSX:HEXO), and The Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX:FIRE) (OTCQX:SPRWF).

CV Sciences Inc. (OTCQB:CVSI) announce its support of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) progress on implementation of the hemp provisions of the 2018 Farm Bill. On October 29, 2019, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue announced the interim final rule for the U.S. Domestic Hemp Production Program. USDA regulation of hemp farming provides a consistent regulatory framework that supports responsible and sustainable hemp production in the United States. A strong USDA regulatory framework is needed to differentiate hemp, an agricultural commodity, from marijuana, a controlled substance, and to protect farmers and consumers. USDA announced that later this week, an interim final rule formalizing the program will be published in the Federal Register. This will allow hemp to be grown under federally-approved plans and make hemp producers eligible for agricultural programs, like crop insurance. The rule includes provisions for USDA to approve hemp production plans developed by states and Indian tribes including: requirements for maintaining information on the land where hemp is produced; testing the levels of THC to ensure compliance with the law; disposing of noncompliant plants; and licensing requirements. "We are eager to see full implementation of USDA's Hemp Production Program," said Joseph Dowling, Chief Executive Officer of CV Sciences. "The hemp industry is poised for rapid growth that will create new jobs and economic development opportunities for farmers, rural communities and the CBD industry. Regulatory clarity is critical for the hemp industry and we believe the interim final rule is another step toward the proper regulatory framework that will help unlock the true domestic growth potential of the industry. We'd like to thank the U.S. Hemp Roundtable and its hemp industry members for their tireless efforts in achieving this milestone. Now that hemp farming regulations have been established its time to focus on FDA's work to clarify the regulatory pathway for hemp-derived CBD products in dietary supplements. USDA and FDA regulation of hemp and CBD will provide a level playing field for quality and science-based CBD companies to operate, and allow consumers access to safe and beneficial products."

Consumers have high expectations for their packaged goods experiences, and cannabis will be no different," said Sebastien St-Louis, CEO and co-founder of HEXO Corp. "We are committed to not only ensuring a quality consistent experience but to also guaranteeing that experiences powered by HEXO meet these expectations." While a Processing License provides for testing on live plants, fresh and dried plant material, seeds, and oil, a Research and Development License significantly expands the scope of work that can be conducted on cannabis and its derivatives.
