“Based on our calculations at current market pricing and production methods, farmers are not able to profit on crops with less than 5-8% CBD content,” says Andrew Bish, founder of Hemp Harvest Works. “If farmers can reduce their seed costs and produce on an agricultural scale, 5% CBD content can make an attractive business model.
