As Canada prepares for the legalization of recreational marijuana in July 2018, analysts are noting a shortage of supplies compared to expected demand for cannabis products. The demand is expected to exceed about 1.3 million pounds, easily outpacing current annual production of 20,000 pounds by the country’s licensed producers. That creates tremendous opportunities for Canada’s top cultivators with the ability to expand their operations and increase supply. An article discussing this reads: “ABcann Global (TSX.V: ABCN) (OTCQB: ABCCF), has been licensed in good standing since 2014 with no history of product recalls, and proprietary computer-controlled production systems that have bolstered the company’s reputation for its consistent pharmaceutical-grade cannabis. Recognizing early on that if the plant was to be effectively utilized as medicine, production had to be standardized from batch to batch, year-over-year, ABcann took an unprecedented scientific approach to medical cannabis production and established a $1.5 million research contract with the University of Guelph, a world leader in controlled environmental growth systems. The scientific collaboration led to ABcann’s proprietary cultivation methods that produce the highest consistent quality cannabis with yields that double the industry standards.”
