The economics of North Carolina's hemp industry
About this episode
The episode discusses the potential changes in regulation for North Carolina's hemp industry and its economic implications.
North Carolina’s hemp industry has largely been unregulated, but that may soon change, and this multi-billion-dollar sector of our state’s economy hangs in the balance. A federal law banning intoxicating hemp products is scheduled to go into effect in November and the General Assembly is considering its own prohibitions. A look at what this may mean for the industry and the 16,000 people working in it.
