As the U.S, hemp market continues to evolve, will its 0.3% THC limit prove to be a disadvantage in the global marketplace as other countries seek to establish a 1% THC limit, which the industry agrees is a much more reasonable limit for farmers and producers without impacting consumers at all? Given that the 0.3% limit was invented arbitrarily by Canadian researchers for a 1976 study seeking to differentiate between hemp and marijuana cultivars and who never intended for it to become a national standard, what are the chances we can change the limit to 1% under USDA rules governing hemp cultivation? How can the industry unite to effectively lobby for this effort, and what can you do as an individual and industry leader to help effect this needed change?
Once the live sessions have finished, you can view the recordings in the Library. We look forward to seeing you during the Experience Hemp Summer Solstice event! And be sure to bring a friend, it’s free to attend!
