Hemp for Health has also provided a description of the company’s plans and expectations for 2020.

In 2019, Hemp for Health focused on the outcome of a test crop, which included the CBD Carmagnola strain in the Tuscan Valley, Italy.

Just 3 hectares of the planted Carmagnola strain yielded approximately 3,000 kilos of biomass and 340 kilos of hemp flower. The harvest is expected to generate a little over C$1,000,000 in gross revenue.

CEO and Founder of Hemp for Health, Robert Eadie, commented on the company’s past results and future hopes. “We are pleased with delivering on our promises to our shareholders as demonstrated by the results and cultivation of this year’s test crop of Carmagnola hemp.”

“2020 will be a transformative year. The company has world class farmers and soil, a stake in a European distribution channel, and results that ultimately will speak to our end goal of delivering wellness benefits to our consumers.”

Hemp for Health’s share price is up 12.2 per cent, with shares trading at $0.23 apiece at 1:48pm EST.
