Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com "Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
In today’s podcast Investorideas interviews Anthony Charles, the Co-Founder of Oakum Cannabis Corp., a privately-owned and operated, licensed producer of cannabis products based in Kelowna, British Columbia, where we discussed what separates Oakum from some of its competitors when it comes to its facility and grow techniques as well as how the company has maintained operations through the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Anthony, like many Cannabis Entrepreneurs in the industry today, did not start with a Cannabis background but instead was a machinist who eventually developed a love for growing cannabis through personal experiences. Anthony and his family later thought to turn this passion into a business back around 2013 but due to difficulties with government and lack of investors it took until 2018 to establish a site and begin construction.
Anthony and the Oakum team personally designed their facility from scratch, which I was lucky enough to receive a tour of, and from security to water treatment to their roto grow machines the facility goes above and beyond to be state of the art.

Anthony went on to discuss how their high tech facility came about saying, “To grow under compliance with Health Canada can sometimes be a bit tricky. You want to be compliant and do the best job you can, but because of certain rules you have to follow, which we’re glad to follow, makes you have to sort of think outside the box on what you can do to optimize your facility and stay in compliance. One of the main areas we found was overhead. By the time you’ve put in all of these auxiliary rooms and you put an extraction lab in the facility like we have, in a 10,000 square foot facility it doesn’t give you as much space to grow as you might like. So we decided as opposed to just looking at the square footage of our building, since we had height in our building, we went vertical with it so that was one of our reasons to choose Roto Grow, so we could produce more product in a smaller space and in a more controlled environment. We go two machines high and we get twice as much canopy space in a room as opposed to traditional growing. From there we have all these machines that are automated but you’ve got to water them so we went ahead and brought in a whole fertigation unit that is from a subsidiary of RotoGrow and we are the first ones in Canada to have this specific fertigation unit. All of our water comes in municipal, then we heavily filter it, carbon filter it, UV filter it, test it and then mix it through our machine and add the nutrients which you write the recipe that tracks everything for you. Then we send it off to the rooms and since it's a flood and drain style system we can see day to day what’s happening at our root zone. This allows us to focus our attention away from the physical mixing and measuring nutrients and focus more time on what changes you may want to make to your environment and investigating plants and perfecting our craft here.”
This system of growing also gives the Oakum team access to a large series of data sets regarding their grow techniques when it comes to nutrient and water levels on an hour by hour basis which allows them a large deal of control over their plants.
Oakum products may not be out on the market yet but Anthony and his team have a very specific concept for the Oakum brand and are expecting to receive their sales license within the next few months.
Mr. Charles went on to discuss the company’s unique extraction techniques in more detail, how the COVID-19 Pandemic has affected their business as well as the future of Oakum and their products.

Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com "Potcast" featuring cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
In today’s podcast we are looking at a few public announcements.
Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ: NEPT) (TSX: NEPT) announced that it has received Health Canada authorization to commercialize natural, plant-based hand sanitizer products. The Company has also engaged with the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), Canada's largest federal research and development organization, to support NRC's efforts to facilitate the development, manufacturing and ultimately commercialization of solutions to meet COVID-19 related needs.
Neptune will leverage its product formulation expertise to develop natural, plant-based sanitizers that effectively kills 99.9% of germs and bacteria, made with a specialized blend of essential oils and fruit extract. The product will be formulated at the Company's production and processing facilities in Sherbrooke, Quebec and Conover, North Carolina, and also with the help of its contract manufacturing partners.
Following its assessment of Neptune's plant-based hand sanitizer products, deeming it as safe and effective in killing bacteria and germs and of high quality, Health Canada issued Neptune a product license and Natural Product Number (NPN), which will appear on the product label to inform customers that the product has been reviewed and approved by Health Canada.
In an effort to supply the North American demand of hand sanitizer products, the Company is also working to fast track FDA registration to produce and market OTC hand sanitizer formulations and products out of its Conover, North Carolina facility.
Neptune is currently sourcing new supply of raw material inputs to ensure ample product supply at launch, which is expected in Summer 2020. Neptune intends to sell its hand sanitizer formulations to consumer-packaged goods (CPG) brands as well as retailers seeking private label owned brands to offer to their customers in the U.S. and Canada. The Company also plans to supply the U.S. and Canadian governments and healthcare systems with sanitizer products through both direct and indirect channels.
"We are very pleased to receive Health Canada authorization to bring our plant-based hand sanitizer to market as we believe consumers will increasingly look for natural sanitizers as their use of these products become more regular in light of COVID-19," said Michael Cammarata, Chief Executive Officer of Neptune. "Neptune's entrance into the hand sanitizer market reflects our ability to be nimble and quickly meet strong market demand for effective, natural and safe household health and wellness products. Our procurement and sales teams are working in concert with our scientists and engineers to source high quality raw materials in order to ramp up production and bring our products to market as quickly as possible."
Relevium Technologies Inc. (TSX.V: RLV) (OTCQB: RLLVF) announced that it has sourced and will begin commercializing a line of Bioganix® hand sanitizers.
Relevium is leveraging its strong network of suppliers and formulators to manufacture and bring to market a line of hand sanitizers under the Bioganix ® Cleancare. The Company will have an initial format of 8oz (235ml) that will effectively kill 99.9% of germs and bacteria. The product is formulated and manufactured in Miami, Florida at the Company's specialty products contract manufacturing partner and will be sold both online and through selected retail chains in the US.
Relevium expect to receive its first production batch in about 8 weeks
"The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will go beyond the immediate socio-economic state of emergency and we believe we will see the rise of new social interaction practices, which will become the norm. We are pleased to position Bioganix® Cleancare as part of this new norm and become a household must amongst our current and future customers" said Aurelio Useche, Chief Executive Officer of Relevium.
Storz & Bickel announced that Health Canada has issued a Medical Device Licence for the new Volcano Medic 2 (License No.: 103842), an advanced cannabis vapourizer device for medical use. This licence permits distribution to medical institutions, clinics, and patients in Canada – including distribution through Spectrum Therapeutics, the medical cannabis division of Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC). The device is currently available for purchase on Spectrum Therapeutics, Storz & Bickel's online shop, and various medical cannabis clinics across Canada.
Storz & Bickel is known for their long history of high quality vapourizer manufacturing and they were the first company to manufacture medically-certified cannabis vapourizers, including the iconic original Volcano Medic.
The Volcano Medic 2, which has been approved for medical use in Europe, Australia, and now Canada, includes improved features for patients such as tenfold faster heat up times, an alternative tubular (direct-to-mouth) inhalation method in addition to the standard Valve Balloon, and an intuitive touch display that allows patients to set their desired temperature directly on the device. Patients can expect the same high-quality materials, impeccable craftsmanship, and unparalleled safe and combustion-free vaporization experience they've become accustomed to with all Storz & Bickel devices with the new reinvented Volcano Medic 2. Alongside their medically approved cannabis vapourizers, Storz & Bickel is known for manufacturing non-medical vapourizers in accordance with international technical safety standards, ensuring premium quality for each component part.
Due to its classification as a licensed medical device, the Volcano Medic 2 is eligible for tax deduction benefits in Canada or cost reimbursements by health insurance companies in Germany, similar to its predecessor and the Mighty Medic.
"Storz and Bickel is internationally-known for its best-in-class device design and manufacturing," said Dr. Mark Ware, Chief Medical Officer, Canopy Growth. "This license will allow us to offer even more options for patients who may be interested in vapourizing whole-flower dried cannabis as an alternative method of medicating."
In the past 12 months, Storz & Bickel updated several products in their existing portfolio, adding new features, improvements, and adjustments designed to increase user and patient experience, including the new Volcano Hybrid that was released in June and the Crafty+ that launched in November.
Senators in Mexico asked the Supreme Court March 27 to extend an April 30 deadline for lawmakers to draft a bill to legalize and regulate cannabis for medical, adult and industrial uses, according to a Cannabis Wire report.
Both the Senate and the Supreme Court have suspended many legislative procedures until at least mid-April due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Cannabis Wire reported, and many lawmakers have indicated that this will cause them to miss deadlines to pass certain bills, including the cannabis legislation.
Sen. Patricia Mercado told Cannabis Wire that the suspension of the Supreme Court will likely mean a deadline extension on the cannabis bill, and said the deadline should be extended to May 30 to align with how long Supreme Court activities are suspended.
However, she added there may be a chance that the Supreme Court could deem the Senate as an essential activity and mandate that lawmakers must meet the April 30 deadline.
In that case, Mercado told Cannabis Wire that the senators would hold electronic meetings to finalize the bill, which would then be sent to the Chamber of Deputies, Mexico’s lower house of Congress, for approval.

Sustainable #Agriculture #Stocks Added to Directory; Also new stocks in #Sports, #Cannabis and #RealEstate
Sustainable #Agriculture #Stocks Added to Directory;
Also new stocks in #Sports, #Cannabis and #RealEstate
Point Roberts WA, Delta BC, April 3, 2020 – (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source and leading investor resource announces its weekly roundup of stocks added to its global stock directories, including agriculture, sports, cannabis and real estate.
The newest companies added to the agriculture stock list are all involved in sustainable agriculture and include crop protection, environmental potash mining, increased food production and a food and agriculture ETF.
The latest sports companies are involved in esport/sports venues and a sports equipment/fitness class company.
The newest cannabis company operates in the US and EU while the latest real estate company is an REIT.
New Stocks added to Agriculture stocks directory:
Imaflex Inc. (TSXV: IFX.V) is focused on the development and manufacturing of innovative solutions for the flexible packaging space. Concurrently, the Corporation develops and manufactures films for the agriculture industry. The Corporation's products consist primarily of polyethylene (plastic) film and bags, including metalized plastic film, for the industrial, agricultural and consumer markets. Headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, Imaflex has manufacturing facilities in Canada and the United States. Today, agricultural films are used in the growing of fresh fruits and vegetables worldwide to cover soil treated with fumigants – volatile and toxic pesticides essential for reducing pests, weeds and fungi in the soil, thus supporting good growth of new crop seedlings. The original EPA approved ADVASEAL® (ADVASEAL® HSM), contained only a herbicide for weed control. The new enhanced ADVASEAL® under development also includes fungicides and a nematicide to control soil borne pathogens, thus becoming a complete non-fumigant alternative for soil disinfestation. With ADVASEAL®, modern non-volatile crop protection products can be applied more effectively and safely than with fumigants. The crop protection products are incorporated into a coating, which is then applied to a mulch film. Once the coated film is applied to the ground the active ingredients are released into the soil under controlled conditions, preventing the over/under-dosing found with current soil disinfestation practices. This new technology dramatically reduces the amount of crop protection products required. The catalyst to trigger the release of the active ingredients is soil moisture. When the film is applied to the soil, they are efficiently and safely discharged into the ground, resulting in heightened productivity, lower costs and notable environmental benefits.
Gensource Potash Corporation (TSX:GSP.V) is a fertilizer development company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and is on track to become the next fertilizer production company in that province. With a small scale and environmentally leading approach to potash production, Gensource believes its technical and business model will be the future of the industry. Gensource operates under a business plan that has two key components: (1) vertical integration with the market to ensure that all production capacity built is directed, and pre-sold, to a specific market, eliminating market-side risk; and (2) technical innovation which will allow for a small and economic potash production facility, that demonstrates environmental leadership within the industry, producing no salt tailings, therefore eliminating decommissioning risk, and requiring no surface brine ponds, thereby removing the single largest and negative environmental aspect of potash mining.
Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE:NTR; TSX: NTR.TO) is the world's largest provider of crop inputs and services, playing a critical role in helping growers increase food production in a sustainable manner. We produce and distribute 25 million tonnes of potash, nitrogen and phosphate products world-wide. With this capability and our leading agriculture retail network, we are well positioned to supply the needs of our customers. We operate with a long-term view and are committed to working with our stakeholders as we address our economic, environmental and social priorities. The scale and diversity of our integrated portfolio provides a stable earnings base, multiple avenues for growth and the opportunity to return capital to shareholders.
The Defiance Next Gen Food and Agriculture ETF (NYSE: DIET) Defiance ETFs is a low-cost* thematic ETF provider focusing on the Next Generation of investors. The DIET ETF provides exposure to companies that are focused on technologies like alternative plant-based sources of meat, such as Beyond Meat (BYND), seed modification, sustainable farming and irrigation techniques.

In addition the company plans on operating a number of subsidiary companies from high tech data management businesses to product and support businesses.
