The 2018 Farm Bill made hemp production lawful across the USA. This bill makes all cannabinoids and hemp-derived products (such as CBD, Delta 8 THC, and Delta 9 THC) federally legal.

​

Following the 2018 Farm Bill, Kansas passed Senate Bill No. 263, which legalized all hemp derivatives, cannabinoids, and isomers. You still may have a doubt whether Delta-9 THC is “weed” or not, but let us tell you, as per the new law if the Delta-9 THC concentration is lower than 0.3% on a dry weight basis it shall not be considered as “weed”.

​

Let’s have a look at Senate Bill No. 263 for a better understanding:

​
