METHOD TO GROW AND HARVEST AND PROCESS HEMP SO THAT THE FRACTION CLASSIFIED AS GRAIN CONTAINS THE THERAPEUTIC CONTENT OF CBD AND TERPENES FOUND IN THE WHOLE PLANT AND IS STILL CLASSIFIED AS INDUSTRIAL HEMP
Method to grow, enhance the bioactive chemistry of, harvest and manufacture aderivative of Industrialhemp cannabis within the regulations set out by the government of thejurisdiction it is grown in,compliant with existing regulations controlling the growing, harvesting andprocessing of hemp, (whichis defined as a low THC cultivar normally grown for food and fiber and not asa psychoactive drugsource) such that a derivative product which contains all of naturallyoccurring or agronomicallystimulated level of cannabinoids and terpenes termed bio-actives from cannabiswhole plant areconserved in the derivative in such a manner that the derivative is classifiedas a food supplement orfood derived from hemp grain and not a controlled drug.The method used to create a combination of hemp biomass and grain in a ratiosuch that the combinedproduct is classified as a grain and not "leaf and bract" (marijuana) is thenovel idea. Namely, a methodto create the equivalent hemp products (low THC content cannabis) , with theoption of enhancing theCBD/THC ratio while insuring the product remains classified as hemp. Thisinvolves using specificagronomic inputs and a specific method of harvest and processing so thatgovernment regulations donot deem the product the equivalent of marijuana.One embodiment utilizes harvesting the crop so that all the biomass goes inthe field into the grain tankor harvester container and subsequently through mechanical processing toreduce the ratio of grain tobiomass to just over 50% grain and just under 50% biomass on a dry matterbasis.A second embodiment involves increasing the CBD content of the biomassfraction of the harvestedgrain so that the relative percentage of THC is reduced while the CBD contentis increased in hempplants whose seed is 10-20% filled and harvesting the crop and processingwithout any conditioning ormechanically setting the ratio of the seed to biomass weight. This embodimentinvolves processing thebiomass together with the grain so that en
