Tennessee's hemp industry is at a crossroads as a legal battle unfolds over THCa regulations. THCa, a popular legal hemp derivative with potential wellness benefits, faces threats of prohibition by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture, sparking uncertainty for businesses, farmers, and consumers alike. The Tennessee Healthy Alternatives Association (THAA) has stepped up, challenging the proposed rules in a fight to protect livelihoods, uphold legislative intent, and preserve access to safe, legal health alternatives. A court’s temporary ruling has paused the changes, keeping THCa products legal for now, but the industry's future hangs in the balance as the case progresses.
