Marijuana, both medical and adult use, is becoming more mainstream in the United States as it continues to be legalized at the state level and emerge as a driving economic force. But what do you know about hemp?
Both from the cannabis plant, marijuana and hemp are drastically different in terms of uses, legal status/regulation and even economic potential. Marijuana sales are predicted to hit $50 billion in the US by 2017, but, with hundreds of uses, industrial hemp could easily dwarf those numbers. This webinar will provide an overview of the differences between marijuana and hemp, a look at what's legal where and the federal government's role in regulation, and a review of the recent legal history behind regulating hemp in the United States.
STUART, PA
"The webinar was well presented by a very knowledgeable person. I do question whether the marijuana issue will be settled pragmatically. This administration is very dogmatic and Sessions is very conservative. I believe it will take a case to settle the issue. Based on the composition of the Supreme Court I am not optimistic on the results. I believe the states would have to show that the federal government is overstepping its boundries in regulating drugs. Isn't there a law on this. By the way, I do not ingest these types of drugs."
