Hemp regulations

Hemp regulations refer to the rules governing the growth, processing, and sale of hemp, a plant related to cannabis. In many countries, including the United States, hemp is legal if it contains less than 0.3% THC, the psychoactive component in marijuana. Regulations may cover various aspects, including licensing for farmers, safety standards for products, and specific uses like textiles, food, and CBD oil. These laws aim to ensure safety, prevent illicit drug production, and promote a legal market for hemp and its products while distinguishing it from marijuana.
