Government of Canada Investment to Help Hemp Farmers and Processors Reach Full Potential

WINNIPEG, MANITOBA--(Marketwire - Dec. 13, 2010) - The Government of Canada is injecting more than $728,000 to help the hemp industry increase production capacity and make new inroads into the U.S. market. The Honourable Vic Toews, Minister of Public Safety, made the announcement today on behalf of Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz.
"Canadian farmers and processors are finding tremendous success with hemp thanks to its many nutritional benefits and wide range of uses in pasta, salad dressings and frozen desserts," said Minister Toews. "This Government is proud to invest in this growing industry so that farmers can continue to expand their markets and develop more products."
