Page 3: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

It is the goal of the industry to grow 40,000 hectares (100,000 acres) of hemp in Canada by 2015. Given average yields and current prices, this represents over $35 million in farm gate receipts which translates into over $100 million for the Canadian economy. The various goals of the LTIS will support…

LTIS GOALS

Page 14: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Promotion and Communications Develop and implement a two-year branding and communications strategy for hemp and hemp products targeted at export destinations.

LTIS GOALS (cont.)

Page 15: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Research - Conduct research on health benefits and feed applications for hemp products achieving results from at least one study each year for the next two years for a total cost of $1,000,000 over the full time period.

LTIS GOALS (cont.)

Page 16: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Market Development - Secure GRAS status for hemp protein powder and hemp oil over the next two years at an annual cost of $1,000,000 per year. ($2,000,000 in total).

LTIS GOALS (cont.)

Page 17: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Administration - Operate a full time CHTA executive office out of Winnipeg with an Executive Director and communications employee responsible for day-to-day operations and market development execution at a cost of $100,000 per year.

LTIS GOALS (cont.)

Page 18: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Objectives that will benefit the whole industry…1. To undertake the research necessary to

promote and obtain regulatory approval for hemp as a healthy ingredient.

2. To facilitate the effective use of generic market development and promotion programs by CHTA members that are targeted and geared towards developing new opportunities.

3. To expand/find new uses or dual usage for hemp (seed, for food and cosmetics, and fibre)

LTIS OBJECTIVES

Page 19: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

Effects of Hemp in Poultry Rations. Effects of Hemp Protein and BioActive

Peptides on Hypertension and Kidney and Heart Health.

REPORT OVERVIEW

Page 21: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

SWOT ANALYSIS

Page 22: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Producer of high quality hemp seed and fibre.

• Focused, capable dedicated group of members of CHTA.

• Development of a prioritization of projects based on industrydemand and growth signals.

• Body of knowledge with respect to breeding, processing andproduct development.

STRENGTHS…

Page 23: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Name recognition – Hemp – Canada. (More for food than fibre).

• Established relationships with retailers and end user clients – product awareness.

• Many Canadian co-operative ventures assuring on-going participation from vested stakeholders along the supply chain.

• Engaged government supportive indeveloping the crop sector.

…STRENGTHS

Page 24: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• The need to achieve Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status with the US Food & Drug Administration for hempseed and hemp products.

• Lack of approval from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) for the use of hemp and hemp products in animal feed.

• Lack of clinical research specifically onthe health benefits of hemp seed and oil.

WEAKNESSES…

Page 25: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Absence of funds to proceed with critical clinical trials and hemp product efficacy.

• Government’s 50/50 matching strategy poses significant problems in qualifying for any funding programs.

• Small producer and processor baseunable to source adequatefunding to conduct necessaryresearch.

• Absence of hemp fibre processingfacilities in Canada.

…WEAKNESSES

Page 26: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Consumer demand is trending more towards local, natural, organic, eco-friendly products playing right into the primary attributes of hemp food and fibre products. o Human foods o Pet foods o Body care products o Health industry o Building products

• Build on the positive environmental impact of hemp in the agricultural sector as a minimal user of chemicals producing a non-GMO product.

OPPORTUNITIES…

Page 27: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Work with government financial support and people resources to develop new products and identify and capture new markets.

• Continue the work on clinical trials, feeding trials and varietal development building on our existing experiential knowledge and expertise.

• Work together as an industry for the strategic advantage of the Canadian hemp trade.

…OPPORTUNITIES

Page 28: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• Inability of the CHTA to sustain operations due to inadequate funding. This would result in the loss of a focal point and primary contact for programs and direction.

• Concentration of dedicated industry participants may exhaust the energy and commitment of those people.

THREATS…

Page 29: HEMP  INNOVATION 2015

• USA legislation approving the cultivation of hemp (this may be seen as an opportunity, as it potentially accelerates the development process and research requirements with new investors, but it has the potential to marginalize the Canadian hemp industry).

• Potential for either demand or supply to outpace the other creating a market failure.

• Shortage of available, affordable sample testing laboratories.
