Hemp 🇬🇭 Ghana

Ghana issues its first two low-THC cultivation licences

On 31 July the Narcotics Control Commission presented the first cannabis cultivation licences to MG Adom Limited and Juliopta Limited.[1] Director-General Maxwell Obuba Mantey said the licences are only for cannabis of no more than 0.3 per cent THC, for industrial, medicinal and research purposes that the licence allows.[1] He told the companies to keep to those conditions, and said that growing without a licence, or above that THC limit, would be dealt with under the law.[1] Recreational cannabis remains illegal.[1]
