Here's what Georgia's new hemp laws really mean | Political Update



The Georgia Hemp Farming Act goes into effect on Oct. 1, 2024, placing restrictions on hemp products made and sold in the Peach State.

The General Assembly passed the Georgia Hemp Farming Act in March, and the law now imposes age restrictions on the possession of consumable hemp products and requires consumable hemp retailers, wholesalers, and manufacturers to obtain a license to operate in Georgia, among other testing and regulatory requirements.

In Georgia, selling consumable hemp products to anyone under the age of 21 is illegal. People under 21 also cannot buy or possess consumable hemp products.

Gary Long, CEO of Botanical Sciences, breaks down the new regulations with Digital Content Producer Tim Darnell.
