Cannabis News Week: Thailand to Distribute 1 Million Cannabis Plants

While the U.S. Congress continues to debate legalizing cannabis, Thailand said it will distribute marijuana plants to 1 million households throughout the country. 

Agriculture accounts for about a third of Thailand’s economy. 

On June 9 the country will allow people to grow cannabis at home after notifying their local authorities.

Thailand has been one of the more forward thinking countries in the world when it comes to regulating marijuana. 

It became the first Southeast Asian country to legalize medical cannabis in 2018.
