We’ll I have witnessed the economic destruction of many who have chased the golden pay out from production of these products. There is already enough oils in storage on US and Canada to supply the world for 5 or more years. Also to supply product with the proper chemistry balance is very difficult to achieve, that the medical industry requires. Cultivation to these standards is very difficult. Just in California there has to be over 100,000 tons of hemp in storage that will never be processed . Problem is there is no legal way to destroy it

That is a great point that you make. With oversupply of hemp in the United States I wondered if it would be cheaper to import it rather than produce it locally. Thank you for your input.

@@CostaRicaLaw there is plenty of CBD on the market, I wish folks would quit refering to CBD as 'hemp' because that isn't what CBD is or where it is derived for medicinal uses. Cannabis is cannabis, and it is also hemp, but as far as medicinal goes, you have high-THC Cannabis, you have high-CBD Cannabis, and you can have varying ratios of each of those cannabinoids with either one being the dominant cannabinoid, but it is all medicinal "Cannabis" and nothing to do with "hemp" as we know it. Not many cultivars/strains are high in the minor cannabinoids so no need to refer to 'high-CBG Cannabis" or "high-CBN Cannabis" but that is what those will be referred to as in a sensible world. I have a 24-page piece of legislation I converted on Google Translate and am basically line-item vetoing what I would remove if I was making laws for my own country. Eliminating the term 'hemp' will save Costa Rica millions and I can explain elsewhere. JonMarsh@TheCannabisConsultants.com if you care to contact.

I also wouldn't grow any industrial hemp in Costa Rica, primary reason is you likely have no infrastructure for it and it won't be a profitable crop if being used for industrial uses. Paper, concrete, fabric, fuel, but you won't be able to grow it on a large enough scale as compared to other countries, or even states in the US. The US should turn Oklahoma, Kansas, and other states who oppose Cannabis into hemp farming states, for two reasons. One is they would be great locations for farming industrial hemp, and the amount of pollen put off by a large industrial hemp farm will cast said pollen for miles and miles and cross into the medicinal Cannabis plants and cause them to seed unwantingly, and they will be far less valuable. Costa Rica does NOT want to farm industrial hemp and does NOT want to call CBD 'hemp' because that's not what it is and it will cost millions in unnecessary oversight and regulations. Imagine just 500 'hemp' farms having to be tested for being under 1% THC and you have to go to each farm to take the samples and then test those samples in a relatively short period of time as the proposed solution to plants being 'too much THC' is to destroy them or donate them to a govt agency. Well why even worry about the THC levels if you're option is to give it away for use anyway? Some parts of the legislation do not make any sense, I am sending my line-item suggestions in this week.

@@thecannabisconsultants8389 thank you for such a detailed review. I hope the local authorities pay attention to the experiences in other markets and to those in the industry. I agree with your observation that they should have separated hemp from cannabis in that law.

Is it illegal to enter costa rica with thc gummies/edibles?

Yes. At this moment I would advise against traveling with anything that has THC in it to avoid any issues at customs. Costa Rica is in the process of regulating medicinal use of cannabis. The current has also recently discussed the possibility of putting recreational use on the table but at the moment this is all under discussion.
