Hemp is finally starting to shake off the effects of decades of prohibition, and more and more states and territories are working on measures to legalize the crop. Some states like Idaho that have had a negative reception towards cannabis legalization might join the ranks of states that allow cannabis use within their borders. The measure by Rep. Dorothy Moon will be her fourth effort after the first three failed in the state legislature. First off, let's make the distinction between hemp and marijuana.

5 Problems Farmers Identify in the USDA Hemp Rules

The 2018 Farm Bill was instrumental in pushing the hemp industry from restriction to one worth billions of dollars. The legislation legalized the cultivation and sale of industrial hemp, classifying hemp as cannabis with less than 0.3% THC content. On condition that farmers grew the crop under state and tribal programs, and they adhered to the rule on THC (delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol), they were free to farm hemp. A few months later, there was a raving hemp Industry, but since there were hardly any regulations, players in the sector, especially farmers, were denied essential services like insurance and banking.

University of Wisconsin Starts Hemp Research

The 2018 Farm Bill was a game-changer for the country's agricultural sector. Tucked away among the pages of the bill was the Hemp Farming Act, legislation that classified cannabis with less than 0.3% THC levels as industrial hemp.

Oregon Hosts Hemp Researchers from China

There's a cannabis revolution going on, and cannabidiol (CBD) is at the helm. For the past few years, cannabis has been gaining popularity, not as a recreational drug, but as a medicine. The 2018 Farm Bill began the revolution, classifying hemp with less than 0.3% THC (delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol) as hemp. THC is the compound responsible for cannabis' psychoactive high. Industrial hemp and all its extracts became fair game, legal to plant, market and sell. In the year since industrial hemp and all its extracts became legal, the market for CBD has grown to insane proportions, and it's expected to hit…

This was a severe setback, hindering research into the plant's abilities and applications. The 2018 Farm Bill changed all that, classifying cannabis with less than 0.3% THC (delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol), the compound that gives users a psychoactive high, as legal industrial hemp. Farmers in all states and tribes were given the green light to farm industrial hemp under State and Tribal programs. A year later, the hemp industry is going strong,…

Regulators Clear Banks to Work With Hemp Industry

Hemp farmers will be glad to learn that one of the biggest issues affecting the hemp industry, lack of access to proper banking services, will soon be a thing of the past. The industry grew rapidly after the 2018 Farm Bill legalized the cultivation of industrial hemp, giving farmers the green light to grow the lucrative cash crop under state and tribal programs. However, banks avoided working with hemp producers, denying them crucial services like loans. Well, that's about to change.
