WHAT'S IN THE GROUND? Licenses to farmers have been issued since March this year, and as we go to press, accurate figures are not available. Health Canada has stated that their goal is a two-week turn-around-time in application; farmers will probably continue to receive licenses well into May, its becoming a tradition!
Over the winter of 98-99 a number of companies and individuals have touted optimistic figures and predictions for acreages this year, well in advance of securing seed or licenses for contracted farmers. According to these early projections, close to 30,000 acres (13,600+ ha.) will be planted in Canada this year, with Manitoba accounting for about half of this figure; hemp production in Ontario will continue to grow strongly, and substantial crops will be planted for the first time this year in BC, Alberta and the Maritimes.
