Executive Summary
Overview: Rex Morgan CBD Hemp Farms, LLC is a registered and licensed CBD hemp farm based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, United States of America. We will sell our products in and around South Dakota because we know our products will be in great demand owing to the state’s demographic makeup.

We will be producing a special variety of the plant species Cannabis sativa L for medical and lawful recreational use at Rex Morgan CBD Hemp Farms, LLC.

Vision: “Our Vision is to become one of the top ten CBD hemp farms in the world, not only in the United States of America”
Industry Overview: The CBD hemp farming industry is part of the Plant & Flower Growing industry, which grows nursery plants like trees and shrubs, as well as flowering plants like cannabis, foliage plants, cut flowers, flower seeds, and ornamentals, as well as short-rotation woody trees like Christmas trees and cottonwoods.

While working on the industry analysis section of the hemp farm business plan make sure that you add a significant number of stats to support your claims and use proper referencing so that your lender can validate the data.
The CBD hemp farming business, which includes both employer and non-employer facilities that cultivate hemp for medical and recreational use, thrived throughout the five years to 2018, according to recent research published by IBISWorld. Recent legalization victories, most notably during the 2016 election cycle, demonstrated that the cannabis business is one of the fastest expanding in the US. Eight states passed marijuana legalization proposals in 2016. According to New Frontier Data, almost a third of the population of the United States now lives in states where marijuana is legal. Consumer views are also propelling state-level legalization attempts. According to Gallup, 80.0 percent of Americans support the legalization of CBD hemp.
The federal legality of industrial hemp production does not supersede state, county, or local restrictions, in addition to the regulatory vibe. Simply said, it means that a state, county, or city can impose stricter regulations than the federal government. Currently, roughly 15 states have passed pro-hemp legislation; the remaining states are either silent or vaguely neutral. Many states, counties, and localities are included in this list.
