Minnesota is proposing a 25% tax on nonintoxicating h**p derived products. Nonintoxicating cannabinoids such as CBD are nutrients to the body. Minnesota is the only state to tax h**p derived nonintoxicating cannabinoids at the same rate as Ma*****na. Yet, Ma*****na sales are still not legal in the Minnesota.

There is new concern over a bill at the state level that could be costly to cannabis businesses throughout the State of Minnesota.

I called out the Medical Ma*****na Mafia on the news tonight. They may put a hit on me. I have angelic protection so I do not fear.

Recreational cannabis retail is right around the corner for Minnesota. Olmsted County Commissioners unanimously passed a new ordinance for the future sale of recreational ma*****na on Tuesday. Meanwhile, the state lottery for recreational businesses will take place on June 5.

A Timeline of Regulatory Hostility Toward H**p

● 2800 BC: Cannabis is listed in Emperor Shen Nung’s pharmacopeia in China.

● 1850-1937: Over 2,000 cannabis medicines are produced by major manufacturers like Parke-Davis and Eli Lilly. Cannabis is widely recognized as a medicinal plant.

● 1860: The syringe and the rise of patentable synthetic drugs in the pharmaceutical industry significantly impacts medicinal cannabis and other natural remedies. Cannabis begins the transition from a commonly used medicinal plant, to being strategically described as a dangerous drug, leading to its decline for much of the 20th century.

● 1906: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is established.

● 1930: The Federal Bureau of Narcotics is established with Harry Anslinger as Commissioner solidifying his role as the creator of the United States’ “War on Drugs.”

● 1936: The film Re**er Madness spreads anti-ma*****na propaganda, reinforcing false narratives about the dangers of cannabis.

● 1937: The Ma*****na Tax Act, heavily influenced by the Federal Bureau of Narcotics’ Commissioner Harry Anslinger, effectively makes cannabis illegal, despite objections from medical professionals.

● 1942: Cannabis is removed from the US Pharmacopoeia by Harry J. Anslinger, Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics.

● 1958: The early GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) program begins, and all American oil seed crops are granted “grandfather” status and certified, except h**p, which, at that time, was considered an “illegal crop.” This resulted in the arduous regulatory re-certification process that h**p is presently negotiating.

● 1964: The cannabinoid THC is discovered by Israeli researchers Dr. Raphael Mechoulam and Fr. Yechiel Goaoni.

● 1970: The Controlled Substances Act (CSA) is enacted, criminalizing cannabis and halting most research into its medical benefits.

● 1976: Ernest Small and his colleague, Arthur Cronquist, publish “A Practical and Natural Taxonomy for Cannabis,” establishing a dividing line between h**p and ma*****na at 0.3% THC to create a “biological classification.”

● 1988: Scientists discover the first cannabinoid receptor, CB1, in the brain.

● 1989-90: Dr. Mechoulam’s team discovers the endocannabinoid system that regulates mood, pain sensation, appetite, immune response, memory and sleep.

● 1992: Dr. Mechoulam’s team discovers the first endocannabinoid.

● 1996: Ernest Small publishes an article in the Agronomy journal, which describes the 0.3% THC level as an “arbitrary threshold at which cannabinoid content is used to distinguish strains of h**p from ma*****na.”

● 2018: The U.S. Farm Bill legalizes industrial h**p but establishes the arbitrary 0.3% or 3,000 ppm THC threshold — a standard that Ernest Small, who coined it in 1976, never intended as a legal benchmark.

● 2024: The FDA imposes the .0002% or 2 ppm THC limit on h**p meal for animal feed, despite a lack of peer-reviewed studies demonstrating harm at higher levels.

H**P MAZE MINNESOTA

H**p Maze Minnesota was established to educate and inform the public about the benefits of a vibrant h**p industry in Minnesota. The maze is located at Willow’s Keep Farm just south of Zumbrota, MN on HWY 52 and is open seasonally. The store is open year round.

Minnesota H**p Pilot Project

In 2015, the Minnesota Industrial H**p Development Act (IHDA), Minnesota Statues 18K, became law. This allowed MDA to create an industrial h**p research pilot program in order to study the growth, cultivation, and marketing of industrial h**p. This law directed the commissioner of agriculture to make program rules, determine a fee structure, and perform testing and other regulatory activities.

Industrial h**p is defined as Cannabis sativa L. that contains no more than 0.3% delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

Pilot participants are required to provide reports to MDA regarding seed varieties planted, agronomic findings, and any processing, distribution and sales of products. The 2018 H**p Pilot Program Report is now available.

MDA obtained a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Schedule 1 Narcotic Research Registration in 2016. All h**p seed for the program is imported under MDA permits.

In 2016, there were 6 pilot participants in Minnesota who grew industrial h**p in MDA's pilot program. It was a historic year, as we saw the harvest of approximately 40 acres of h**p in Minnesota for the first time since the 1950s. In 2017, there were 38 registered pilot participants, who grew 1,205 acres. In 2018, there were 51 registered pilot participants, who grew 700 acres.

2018 Farm Bill

Industrial H**p will be removed from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). It will be distinct from ma*****na and recognized as an agricultural crop by the federal government.

States and Tribes will still oversee regulation of h**p production in their jurisdictions.

The Farm Bill frees up interstate movement of h**p seed, plants, and processed h**p products.

H**p farmers will be eligible for crop insurance and grants through USDA.

H**p Maze Minnesota is fully licensed. It is unlawful to remove any h**p from the pilot field. This includes seeds, leafs, flowers or any other parts of the plants.
