Hemp definitions are legally significant because they draw the line between legal agricultural products and controlled substances. Changes to these definitions can have major financial consequences for farmers, retailers of CBD products, and the hemp industry as a whole.
This primarily affects hemp farmers, processors, and businesses that sell hemp-derived products who must now follow the updated legal definition included in the final law.
