I definitely see a future for Hemp pellets as an alternative to burning trees for wood pellets.



Side Note: my esoteric research is pointing out advancements are coming (that's been hiden from the public) to the energy sector. I do not suggest betting long term on burning anything to create energy. My guess is we are 4 to 5 years away before the technology is made public.

Current Bill Summary

SCS/SB 547 - This act modifies provisions relating to industrial hemp. Currently, marijuana and marihuana are considered Schedule I drugs for purposes of the Comprehensive Drug Control Act. This act defines industrial hemp, and exempts industrial hemp from the Comprehensive Drug Control Act. This act creates an industrial hemp agricultural pilot program to be implemented by the Department of Agriculture to study the growth, cultivation, processing, feeding, and marketing of industrial hemp. Under this act, growers and handlers of industrial hemp are required to obtain a registration, and growers and handlers of agricultural hemp seed are required to obtain a permit, from the Department of Agriculture. An application for an industrial hemp registration or agricultural hemp seed production permit shall be accompanied by an application fee and shall include certain information as set forth in this act. Upon fulfilling the application requirements, upon completing a satisfactory fingerprint criminal history background check, signing an acknowledgment that industrial hemp is an experimental crop, and signing a waiver holding the Missouri Department of Agriculture harmless, the Department shall issue a registration or permit. All information relating to registration and permit holders shall be forwarded to the Missouri State Highway Patrol. Any registration or permit is nontransferable except to certain family members, is valid for 3 years, and is renewable. Under this act, the Department may revoke, refuse to issue, or refuse to renew an industrial hemp registration or agricultural hemp seed production permit, and may impose a civil penalty of not less than $2,500 and not more than $50,000 for violating registration or permit requirements, Department rules, industrial hemp plant monitoring system requirements, or certain Department of Agriculture orders. A registration or permit shall not be issued to any person that has been found guilty of any felony offense under any state or federal law regarding a controlled substance within the previous 5 years. Under this act, any person growing industrial hemp who does not have a valid registration shall be subject to an administrative fine of $500 and shall have 30 days to obtain such registration. If such person receives such registration within 30 days, he or she shall have their fine refunded in full. However, if such person fails to obtain such registration within 30 days, he or she shall be fined $1000 per day until such registration is obtained, or their crop may be destroyed by the Department of Agriculture after 30 additional days. Under this act, any grower may retain seed from each industrial hemp crop to ensure a sufficient supply of seed for that grower for the following year without the requirement to obtain a hemp seed production permit. Such seed shall not be sold or transferred, and does not have to meet hemp seed standards established by the Department of Agriculture. Each grower and handler shall be subject to an industrial hemp plant monitoring system and shall keep certain records as required by the Department of Agriculture. Upon 3 days notice, the Department may require an inspection or audit for purposes of ensuring compliance with industrial hemp laws, regulations, permit requirements, monitoring system requirements, and Department orders. Additionally, this act allows the Department to inspect any industrial hemp crop during the crop's growth phase. If such crop contains an average THC concentration exceeding 0.3%, or the maximum amount allowed under federal law, the Department may detain or seize the crop. This act requires the Department of Agriculture to develop standard identification documentation for industrial hemp and associated commodities. The Department may assess growers and handlers registered under this act a fee for developing such system. All fees assessed to growers and handlers shall be deposited in the Industrial Hemp Fund created under this act, which shall be used by the Department of Agriculture for administration purposes. Further, this act allows an institution of higher education, in collaboration with the Department of Agriculture, to engage in the study of the growth, cultivation, or marketing of industrial hemp and seed. This act also allows the Missouri Crop Improvement Association, in collaboration with the Department, to establish and administer a certification program for agricultural hemp seed. Under the program, the Department may breed, plant, grow, cultivate, and harvest cannabis, and collect seeds from wild cannabis plants. Such program shall be voluntary for growers of industrial hemp. Currently, a food is considered adulterated if it meets certain criteria. Under this act, a food shall not be considered adulterated if it contains industrial hemp, or an industrial hemp commodity or product. This act is similar to HB 170 (2017). source: SB 547 Modifies provisions relating to industrial hemp

Prototype Seeks Funding

For everyone who has been waiting on an economical Hemp Field Processing Unit that you won't have to rob a bank for I have great news!

Hemp Farmers and Hemp Industry Organizations are going to have an option rather than purchasing a multi million dollar hemp processing facility.  MOhemp Energy mobile Hemp Harvesting and Processing equipment will allow people to get in the Hemp business on the cheap!

You will not have to spend Millions of $ Dollars $ to get into the Hemp business! 

 As quoted by one of the Start Up advisers: "Your invention could be the Holy Grail of the Hemp Industry."

Startup Lesson: Industry Players vs Non Industry People

One thing I've learned when talking to Hemp and Agriculture People vs those outside the business is: People in Agriculture understand Agriculture terms used in my startup pitch deck.

Here's a simple example:  I mentioned a drill the other day to a non ag person.  "He asked how big of a hole?"  When I mention a drill to an Ag person; they understand I'm talking about a seeder or planter that "puts the seeds into the ground".  The one simple word has very different meanings.

I also learned that it takes me more time to explain farming techniques and less time is spent on talking about my inventions or MOhemp Energy:

• such as crop rotation, 
• planting or harvesting are times often determined by weather conditions, 
• the difference between a combine or a harvester...

The greatest thing about pitching to Agriculture Industry Players is that they want to see Farmers succeed.  They understand that Farming is the most important industry in the World.  Farmers create the most treasured resource: Food.

Adviser Spoke-I was all ears

This isn't a word by word quote in the order we talked about things, its just how my mind seemed to examine and digest the wisdom before I make a financial mistake and how I've solved a few of the issues needed to address and overcome that he mentions in re to the MOhemp Energy Mobile Processing Station.

(1) the USA market is not ready for mass use from end users of Industrial Hemp in America.

(2) Competition from outside USA where labor is cheap in production of (example) Hemp fibers or hurds makes for a tough sale in USA. Especially since we don't manufacture much and demand is low right now.

(3) Hemp is so disruptive to so many businesses our Govt would rather pass Medical cannabis than Industrial Hemp -which is completely backwards to conventional wisdom.

(4) Hemp products are/is expensive in USA. If for example Hemp became legal to grow Nationwide the price of seeds would go sky high due to supply and demand and there wouldn't be enough seeds to meet this demand.

(5) There are existing Canadian buyers of Hemp Hurds but the price is so low because of the existing Lumber supplies that are fulfilling and meeting this need right now- is what prohibits a more widespread use of Hemp OSB panels.

He mentioned more but I feel that is enough background from someone who has 15 plus years more experience than myself in the Hemp and Flax Industry.

Now I see why it is important to have Advisers to a startup and I realized a few things that I have done wrong in presenting my startup business plan, that has been evolving night and day as I put the final pieces of the puzzle together.

• I need to do a better job of explaining the MOhemp Energy system and processes of the Mobile Processing System that eliminates the $14,000,000 Hemp processing plant- such as the one planned in Oklahoma.

• The Numbers not the Inventions need to clear and understandable.

• I have to have end product users (pre-arranged). More than likely this is supplying an existing manufacture a raw material.

in the next MOhemp Blog Post I will go in details on

how I have considered and overcame all his suggestions

by the Mobile Hemp Processing System. The only thing

I've yet to solve is the end product buyers.

They will be the last piece needed to the puzzle.

Here are some more pieces to the big puzzle on why Industrial Hemp is gaining ground in the USA

Hemp For Victory 2016

Big clue today July 31, 2016: Ukraine- lots of Hemp seeds, needs income. Russia, cut aid to Ukraine. I'm putting 2+2 together.

I predict: Hemp For Victory Round 2, Spring Planting 2016.

Bringing back Industrial Hemp will jump-start American jobs and Small business and Make it disruptive to the existing biz as usual for American Big Companies- who also are the Republicans Repukitans base for the $$$ polluting the Politics of the USA.

Taking power away from big businesses who are and did sell out the American workers by outsourcing jobs overseas. President Obama realizes this and also realizes that by legalizing both Medical and Industrial Cannabis he is ultimately giving the people a fighting chance against the powers who have keep the average Americans struggling and under the thumb of Big Business Interest and overshadowed their voices in Washington and Life in the real World.

Will Hemp For Victory Round 2 be the cure all for America's Ills? Maybe not all but it will damn sure help a few. And I personally can't wait to work directly with the Farmers who will lead the resurgence of American Productivity and jobs that all start on the Farm! The added benefits will be the lessening of the grip that big business has on Washington.

Remember all these new Industrial Hemp and Medical Cannabis ventures are small new disruptive businesses that will take the power or $ money $ out of the big business coffers.

Hemp For Victory Round 2 coming spring 2016- in time for planting season. Are you prepared to meet this new demand?

I am Scotty MOhemp Energy.

“We are now involved in trying to figure out ways in which we might be able to use the industrial hemp seeds that are created in the Ukraine in the U.S.,” Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said yesterday in an interview. 

Notice to Missouri Legislators on Industrial Hemp

Copy of what I sent to Missouri Legislators involved in the Industrial Hemp Legality in MO.

Thank you for supporting Industrial Hemp for Missouri.

 

I have 3 Inventions that relate to Industrial Hemp: Harvesting, Hempcrete Building, and Lignin removal.  (lignin has value in energy and as supercapicitors used in electronics).

I have shared this information with my business advisers, people in the hemp industry, and others: who are and have been involved in Building Industry, Hemp Production, and Hemp Processing.  One of which said my invention could be the "holy grail" needed to bring the Hemp Industry Mainstream.

To be blunt: If you guys don't get off your butts and pass Industrial Hemp legislation these other companies I'm working with will use my inventions in other states and Missouri will miss out on being "First To Market." (During the HB830 committee meeting I presented at this was mentioned by a committee member.)

Missouri is full of great minds and businesses that my inventions will bring in much needed jobs and income as well as reducing our states carbon footprint (which is rated 6th from the bottom by the DOE of all the USA states.)

There are opportunities available in re to Industrial Hemp that will enable Missouri to: "Show Them" instead of lagging behind and having them "Show Me" or us.  Lets get off the sidelines and be leaders instead of followers.

Respectfully Submitted,

Scotty, StLouis, MO of the planned future business MOhemp Energy- (if Missouri legalizes Industrial Hemp).  If not I'm taking the business and possible millions of revenue to another state. MOhemp Energy could just as well be: COhemp Energy or TNhemp Energy.  I love our state but I cannot bring these inventions to market without being able to grow hemp here in Missouri.

4th Milestone Accomplished by MOhempEnergy

While attending a recent webinar on USDA Bio-refinery, Renewable Chemical, and Bio-based Product Manufacturing Assistance Program as it relates to the USDA 9003 loan guarantees and programs last week that was sponsored by

 

Westar one of the presenters answered my question on whether a Mobile Refinery qualifies for the 9003 Loan Guaranty!

Yes my inventions do and will qualify for the USDA 9003 program.  The mobile processing scenario was the last question answered at 1:25:16  http://cdn2.hubspot.net/hubfs/14164/2015-07-23_15.02_USDA_9003_Program_-_Winning_Strategies_for_Success.mp4?t=1437687057932

This was the biggest milestone in acquiring funding as it guarantees the lending institution that funds MOhemp Energy startup venture will be protected financially.

The products that MOhemp Energy will be providing that meet the requirements are Industrial Hemp based products namely- Biodiesel, Biomass, and Lingin (used in supercapicitors see pdf) as well as energy conserving building products.

I'm excited to say the least and can't wait to get to work developing the inventions and assisting Missouri Farmers in generating a new source of income that has all the aforementioned positive energy benefits from a Natural and Sustainable Industrial Hemp Plant.

Wiki defines supercapictors as: 

• A supercapacitor (SC) (sometimes ultracapacitor, formerly electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC)) is a high-capacity electrochemical capacitor with capacitance values greater than 1,000 farads at 1.2 volt that bridge the gap between electrolytic capacitors and rechargeable batteries. They typically store 10 to 100 times more energy per unit volume or mass than electrolytic capacitors, can accept and deliver chargemuch faster than batteries, and tolerate many more charge and discharge cycles than rechargeable batteries. They are however 10 times larger than conventional batteries for a given charge.
• Supercapacitors are used in applications requiring many rapid charge/discharge cycles rather than long term compact energy storage: within cars, buses, trains, cranes and elevators, where they are used for regenerative braking, short-term energy storage or burst-mode power delivery. Smaller units are used as memory backup for static random-access memory (SRAM).
• Supercapacitors do not have a conventional solid dielectric. They use electrostaticdouble-layer capacitance or electrochemical pseudocapacitance or a combination of both instead:
• Electrostatic double-layer capacitors use carbon electrodes or derivatives with much higher electrostatic double-layer capacitance than electrochemical pseudocapacitance, achieving separation of charge in a Helmholtz double layer at the interface between the surface of a conductive electrode and an electrolyte. The separation of charge is of the order of a few ångströms (0.3–0.8 nm), much smaller than in a conventional capacitor.
• Electrochemical pseudocapacitors use metal oxide or conducting polymerelectrodes with a high amount of electrochemical pseudocapacitance. Pseudocapacitance achieved by Faradaic electron charge-transfer with redox reactions, intercalation or electrosorption.
• Hybrid capacitors, such as the lithium-ion capacitor, use electrodes with differing characteristics: one exhibiting mostly electrostatic capacitance and the other mostly electrochemical capacitance.
• The electrolyte forms a conductive connection between the two electrodes which distinguishes them from electrolytic capacitors where the electrolyte is the second electrode (the cathode). Supercapacitors are polarized by design with asymmetric electrodes, or, for symmetric electrodes, by a potential applied during manufacture.
