  • Hemp As an Agricultural Commodity
    Hemp as an Agricultural Commodity Renée Johnson Specialist in Agricultural Policy June 22, 2018 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32725 Hemp as an Agricultural Commodity Summary Industrial hemp is an agricultural commodity that is cultivated for use in the production of a wide range of products, including foods and beverages, cosmetics and personal care products, nutritional supplements, fabrics and textiles, yarns and spun fibers, paper, construction and insulation materials, and other manufactured goods. Hemp can be grown as a fiber, seed, or other dual-purpose crop. However, hemp is also from the same species of plant, Cannabis sativa, as marijuana. As a result, production in the United States is restricted due to hemp’s association with marijuana, and the U.S. market is largely dependent on imports, both as finished hemp-containing products and as ingredients for use in further processing (mostly from Canada and China). Current industry estimates report U.S. hemp product sales at nearly $700 million annually. In the early 1990s there was a sustained resurgence of interest to allow for commercial hemp cultivation in the United States. Several states conducted economic or market studies and initiated or enacted legislation to expand state-level resources and production. Congress made significant changes to federal policies regarding hemp in the 2014 farm bill (Agricultural Act of 2014 (P.L. 113-79, §7606). The 2014 farm bill provided that certain research institutions and state departments of agriculture may grow hemp under an agricultural pilot program. The bill further established a statutory definition for industrial hemp as “the plant Cannabis sativa L.

  • The Caribbean
    THE CARIBBEAN 163 INCSR 2006 Volume I 164 The Caribbean The Bahamas I. Summary The Bahamas is a major transit country for cocaine and marijuana bound for the U.S. from South America and the Caribbean. The Government of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas (GCOB) cooperates closely with the USG to stop the flow of illegal drugs through its territory, to target Bahamian drug trafficking organizations, and to reduce the domestic demand for drugs within the Bahamian population. The Bahamas is a party to the 1988 UN Drug Convention. II. Status of Country The Bahamas, a country of 700 islands and cays distributed over an area the size of California maritime and aerial routes between Colombia and the U.S., is an attractive location for drug transshipments of cocaine, marijuana and other illegal drugs. The Bahamas is not considered a significant drug producer nor a producer or transit point for drug precursor chemicals. The Bahamas participates actively as a partner in “Operation Bahamas and Turks and Caicos” (OPBAT)-a multi- agency international drug interdiction cooperative effort established in 1982. As of November 2005, OPBAT seized 840 kilograms of cocaine and 9.0 metric tons of marijuana. III. Country Actions Against Drugs in 2005 Policy Initiatives. The GCOB’s comprehensive National Anti-Drug Plan, published in 2004, calls for the establishment of a National Drug Secretariat with responsibility for its implementation. The GCOB announced its intention in late 2005 to headquarter the Secretariat in the Ministry of National Security. In 2005, there was no legislative movement to implement the recommendations of an OAS/CICAD assessment of The Bahamas precursor chemical control legislation.
