As the Weed World Turns – This Week’s Global Cannabis Industry News Roundup

The European Commission (EC), the agency that is responsible for cannabis laws for all European Union member states, has just released the set of guidelines regarding the highest THC limits that are legally going to be allowed in hemp seeds to be used in food and drinks. The regulations were two-tiered; the first, authorized by the Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food, and Feed, mandates that oil extracted from hemp seeds shouldn’t have more than 7.5 mg/kg hemp. Meanwhile, the second tier states that if dried foods are to contain any hemp, like protein powders and hemp flours made from hemp seed, THC shouldn’t be more than 3mg/kg.
