VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 24, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Yield Growth Corp. (CSE:BOSS) announces that it will soon commence sales of its Urban Juve hemp oil-infused personal care products to consumers in the US now that the US 2018 Farm Bill has been signed into law.  The new Farm Bill removes industrial hemp from the Controlled Substances Act and opens the door for hemp infused products.

Passage of the Farm Bill comes at an opportune time for Yield Growth subsidiary, Urban Juve Provisions Inc., which has just launched its premium Urban Juve products in Canada.  Urban Juve is an Ayurveda-inspired skin care and wellness brand that rejuvenates and nourishes from within: spirit to skin. Urban Juve’s key ingredient — hemp root oil — combines with natural and pure essential oil-based formulations to create quality products that are currently available online in Canada at urbanjuve.com and are available at select retail stores across Canada.

The global industrial hemp market size is expected to reach USD $10.6 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is anticipated to expand at an annual growth rate of 14% during the forecast period. According to Grand View Research, growing population and rising disposable income are expected to result in an increased demand for high-quality cosmetics, personal care products, protein supplements, and other health food products. These factors are expected to be key driving factors for the market over the projected period.

“With the recent launch of our Urban Juve products in Canada, the passage of the US Farm Bill couldn’t have come at a better time for us,” said Penny Green, CEO of Yield Growth and Urban Juve.  “We are poised to capitalize on the huge opportunity presented by the United States cosmetic and wellness market and will open our ecommerce channel to the US shortly.”

President Donald Trump last week signed legislation into law that includes language lifting the United States’ decades-long prohibition on domestic, commercial hemp production. The provisions were included within The Farm Bill, which takes effect on January 1, 2019.

“The significance of this law change should not be underemphasized,” NORML Deputy Director Paul Armentano said. “This law marks the first change in the federal classification of the cannabis plant since it was initially classified as a Schedule I Controlled Substance by Congress in 1970, and paves the way for the first federally-sanctioned commercial hemp grows since World War II.”
