Proceeds from the sale of cannabis is very high compared with other crops, so farmers will be interested in promoting this culture.

The US market

Advances konoplyarstva in Canada due to the fact that the US cannabis cultivation is currently prohibited at the federal level. Accordingly, Canadian producers of hemp products have significant opportunities to export their products to the US market (the lion's share of Canadian exports of hemp belongs to the US). However, local producers predict the legalization of cannabis cultivation in the US in the next 10 years. Accordingly, Canadian farmers are planning to take advantage of the opportunities before them in this period.

Investments

Constraining factor is the underdevelopment of hemp processing sector in Canada. In order to meet the respective demand, we plan to create additional processing facilities in Alberta. The plant will process up to 50,000 tonnes of fiber per year. The project is estimated at 30 million Canadian dollars.

In April 2010 the Government of Manitoba has allocated 500 thousand. Canadian dollars for the implementation of an innovative project for the production of certain goods from hemp - Wood, insulation materials and so on. The power plant is planned to increase to 18 thousand tons per year.

Some assistance was provided konoplyarstvu and federal level. In late 2010, the federal government announced the allocation was 728,000 Canadian dollars to increase production capacity hemp industry and expanding markets in the United States. In particular, 410 thousand Canadian dollars has been allocated campaign Hemp Oil Canada (both credit - to purchase appropriate equipment) and 18,500 dollars was allocated to Canadian hemp trade association for the development of the site. In November 2011, the Association has been allocated an additional 55,000 Canadian dollars to improve ways of entering the US market.

The Government of Canada is partly funded research National Research Council of Canada and Natural Advanced Technologies, which works to create special enzymes to soften and whiten fabrics with hemp. If successful, the technology promises to be revolutionary in the manufacture of tissue.

Medicine

However, according to the Association, a serious hindrance to the development konoplyarstva sector in Canada is the lack of scientific research, medical industrial hemp species. Currently conducts such studies only state laboratory in Montreal (exercise these private research laboratories forbidden).

Prospects

Local manufacturers forecast further development konoplyarstva in Canada. One element of the Canadian Association of Trade hemp (rollers) is defined popularize this culture among farmers and widely inform the public about the benefits of consumption of cannabis. In October 2014 there was a large-scale Canadian national conference on konoplyarstva, which was attended by cannabis producers, representatives of the processing sector, scientists, both Canada and the US and Europe. In addition, proceeds from the sale of cannabis is very high compared with other cultures, because, according to representatives rollers, farmers will be interested in promoting this culture.
