The Impacts of Seed to Sale Operations on FarmingMost CBD products that are on the market are the result of multiple entities that contribute 1 part of the supply chain. A farmer grows Hemp for seeds that are then either grown into seedlings or sold directly to other farmers for planting. Another farmer plants the seeds and grows the Hemp.  The harvested Hemp must then be sold to a buyer who will process it into a distributable product. While this is the SOP for most agricultural products, it creates additional pressure and opportunities for failure on the farmers. Having a single company assist and manage the process from seed to sale is beneficial to the farmers and to the consumer.

It all starts with the seeds.

The building blocks of the Hemp Industry are the seeds. Genetics that have research and a traceable history behind them provide assurances of the outcome of the crop, most notably the THC content and flowering rate. Most farmers purchase their seeds at a cost of up to $0.50 per seed; a hefty investment on the front end in hopes of the crop succeeding and selling the harvest at top dollar. Opulent propagates its own seeds in the United States and supplies them to Opulent farmer partners as part of their partner contract. This allows Opulent to test the success of multiple Hemp strains to determine what grows best in each environment where Opulent has farms. These in house genetics are then continually cultivated as part of the Opulent harvest method, providing for subsequent plantings year after year.

Farmer Partners benefit from Opulent genetics and Hemp expertise.

In addition to the reduced investment in the planting phase, using in house seeds provides assurance to the farmers that their crops will grow into viable, healthy plants (provided the farmers do their part in raising them). They do not have to search for and select genetics based solely on a COA that does not ensure growth in their region. The farmers also benefit from years of expertise in cultivating cannabis, so even if they are new to farming Hemp, they are not alone in their venture. Opulent provides detailed guidance with the Opulent planting method regarding row spacing, quantity of seeds per acre, soil nutrients, water alkalinity, product testing, and harvesting methods that work best for Hemp.

In house products create built in buyers.

Opulent also aids farmers in the sale of the harvested Hemp. There is no need for farmers to spend time searching for reliable salespeople or buyers. The Opulent team arranges for the sale of the product and negotiates and arranges for profit sharing when applicable. As the first harvest will be processed for use in Opulent products, there is also a built-in buyer for farmers, so there is never a question of whether the Hemp will be sold. There are specific guidelines to follow regarding the transport and processing of Hemp.  Opulent arranges these steps for the farmer, ensuring transportation of the crop and processing into CBD product is in full compliance with all state and federal laws.

Farmers can focus on what they do best: farming.

Opulent takes the guesswork out of farming Hemp and supplies expertise to farmers from seed to sale. Assisting with these necessary, but sometimes challenging steps, allows Opulent farmer partners to focus on what they do best: farming.
