[ad_1]
Las Vegas, NV – 
(NewMediaWire) – January 7, 2021 – Hemp, Inc. (OTC
PINK: HEMP), a global leader in the industrial hemp industry with bi-coastal
processing centers, reported today that South Carolina’s Department of
Agriculture (SCDA) is accepting hemp farming applications for the 2021 growing
season through February 28, 2021. With federal government approval, the state’s
Hemp Farming Program entered a “new period of regulatory stability” making hemp
more attractive to farmers in the state.
Hemp, Inc. has relationships
with farmers in South Carolina so the company is looking forward to expanding
its reach there and seeing more business opportunities created. Many states across the country are seeing an
increase in hemp farming. With the vision of a thriving industrial hemp
industry, Hemp, Inc. has built a massive infrastructure over the past 12 years
to support this robust industry. One market analysis report stated the
global industrial hemp market size was 5.33 billion for 2020 and expects it to
reach 15.26 billion by year 2027. (Read
the Grand View Research report here.)
According to SCDA, the state’s “Hemp
Farming Program has grown from 20 farmers in 2018 to 265 farmers in 2020 – and
each year, the program has changed as state and federal laws changed. When the
federal government approved South Carolina’s State Hemp Plan in April 2020, the
program entered a new period of regulatory stability, one that SCDA expects to
continue in 2021. The agency now has six full-time staffers devoted to hemp
regulation.”
Application specifics include
proof of South Carolina residency and passing of a criminal background check.
Applicants are also required to submit GPS coordinates of exactly where they
will grow the hemp. There is also a $100 nonrefundable application fee
and $1,000 permit fee. All farmers must apply through SCDA’s online portal at
agriculture.sc.gov/hemp. Applications, along with all required materials, must
be received by the deadline, February 28, 2021.
Anyone with a 2020 permit must
apply for a new 2021 permit. For information about the South Carolina Hemp
Farming Program, visit agriculture.sc.gov/hemp or email hempstaff@scda.sc.gov.
