Future Farm Harvest Passes Major Milestone
Vancouver, British Columbia, Oct. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Future Farm Technologies Inc. (CSE: FFT) (OTCQB: FFRMF) is pleased to announce that hemp from the Company’s farm in Hersey, Maine has passed the state-mandated testing for acceptable (i.e. below 0.3%) levels of THC.
The favorable testing results illustrate the agricultural expertise of the Future Farm team. The results also mean that the farm has cleared the last regulatory hurdle for harvest, which is planned for mid-October.
As part of the Company’s dedication to quality and adherence to high standards, Future Farm will next utilize independent laboratories to test the harvested hemp throughout the drying and curing processes.
"This milestone is perhaps more significant for us this year than last year because of the recent Maine law which has made clear that food products containing CBD that are produced and sold in Maine are not considered to be ‘adulterated’ under Maine law,” comments William Gildea, Future Farm’s CEO. “We anticipate robust sales considering ours is one of the largest farms in Maine, and we'll be proud to provide quality CBD-based products to the local community and beyond."
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has set November 25, 2019 as the date of its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. The Company has set October 17, 2019 as the record date for notice, voting and beneficial ownership determination date.
