CROP California Receives 1,000 Four Foot Cannabis Plants to Begin and Accelerate the 2019 California Cultivation Season

Crop Infrastructure Corp. (CSE:CROP) (OTC:CRXPF) (Frankfurt: 2FR) announced today that its 49% owned Humboldt County farm has received an order of 1,000 4 ft. tall cannabis plants accelerating the company and its farm in to the 2019 cultivation season.

These large starter plants are expected to have increased yields as they are much taller and fuller than the previous years plants. Currently, the farm has five 2,000 sq.ft. greenhouses totaling 10,000 square feet and 20,000 square feet of outdoor cultivation space.

Additionally, the farm has received approval from the Humboldt County Planning Department for the 2019 expansion, including a 30,000 sq. ft. automated light dep greenhouse facility and additional vault space. The new facility is expected to cost $499,000 in capex at the farm and is expected to yield 12,000 pounds per year, taking the company to year-round cultivation and tripling the output of the existing California infrastructure.

CROP’s Emerald Heights retail brand has had its licensing fees submitted for phase two of Chula Vista’s cannabis retail application process, combined with the company’s partial acquisition of a distributer and extraction facility, if licenced the retail location will bring the company to being fully vertically integrated.

A report from cannabis industry research firm BDS Analytics predicts that the California cannabis market will increase to $5.1 Billion in 2019 as more dispensaries come online. Analysts at Cowen & Co. believe the nation’s legal cannabis industry could reach $50 billion by 2026, with California accounting for about $25 billion of that market, according to CFN Media Group.

CROP CEO, Michael Yorke, stated: “The company’s manufacturing partners are finishing up the farms final products of the 2018 season and now we are preparing to scale up our operations with a new state of the art facility. We will be particularly interested to see how these new, advanced plants perform.”
