Ohios hemp industry faces a significant blow due to new state and federal rules, leading to business closures and job losses. Senate Bill fifty-six bans the sale of intoxicating hemp products, while a federal ban on certain hemp items follows in November. Hemp farmers must now obtain licenses from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, disrupting their planting plans. The industry warns that around six thousand small businesses could fold, impacting local revenue. Advocates argue that the regulations are crushing an emerging market. Some Ohio breweries are pushing back against Governor Mike DeWines veto on THC drinks. Shops are already closing, leaving farmers scrambling for new paths and business owners counting losses.
