Senate Bill 3, which bans THC in hemp, is now sitting Texas Gov. Abbot's desk awaiting from his signature or veto. The questions is, how would this affect the agricultural side of hemp production?

Texas is considering banning consumable hemp products that contain any amount of a cannabinoid other than CBD and CBG.

The Texas bill would make it a misdemeanor to sell, possess or manufacture consumable products with tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. The proposal shadows several other state efforts to crack down on a market that has exploded since a 2018 federal law allowed states to regulate hemp, which can be synthetically processed to create THC.
