The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) recently explained that the cannabinoid THCA must be included when calculating THC levels to meet the legal definition of hemp, according to the 2018 Farm Bill.

This clarification has caused concerns in the hemp industry, which worries about new compliance challenges.
