Cannabis Industry

Cannabis is now legal for adult recreational use in 8 states in the United States, and also for legal purposes in many other states. Within Europe, the use of cannabis for medical purposes is becoming acceptable and the drug is already decriminalized in Netherlands and Portugal. African countries are getting on board too by legalizing marijuana for medical purposes. This growing trend means that the cannabis industry is growing from an underground movement to a much professional business sector.
