(OTC Pink: HEMP), a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with bi-coastal processing centers, including the 85,000 square foot multipurpose industrial hemp processing facility on 9 acres in Spring Hope, NC, a 55,000 square foot state of the art local processing center in White City, Oregon, a 500-acre hemp growing Veteran Village Kins Community in Golden Valley, Arizona, two model \"Small Family Hemp Farms\" in North Carolina and Arizona, a pre-roll blending manufacturing facility in Las Vegas, NV, and a 5,000 square-foot retail store (The King of Hemp Store™) in Kingman, Arizona, announced today that it has the capacity to supply hemp to China based on a new US-China trade agreement.Bruce Perlowin, CEO of Hemp, Inc.Cannot view this image?

Hemp is mentioned specifically in the trade agreement, in which the Chinese government agreed to spend at least $12.5 billion more on total U.S. agricultural commodity imports than it did in 2017. The agreement refers to \"true hemp\" which is defined narrowly as raw materials which can be processed but not spun; it also applies to the \"tow and waste of true hemp\" which includes yarn waste and garnetted stock.While getting hemp written into the trade deal is a sign of progress for the industry, some speculate that it seems unlikely that U.S. producers are prepared to take advantage of that opportunity. However, Hemp, Inc. has continued to build out its infrastructure and grow operations in North Carolina so that it can become a major hemp supplier. Hemp, Inc. is growing 50 acres of hemp fiber that meets the requirements of the deal at their facilities in North Carolina. The company fulfilled a $1 million dollar sales agreement for its DrillWall™, their proprietary kenaf-hemp blend natural Loss Circulation Material (LCM) product for the oil and gas well drilling industries.Hemp, Inc.'s 2016 Agricultural EndeavorsCannot view this video?
