Feds Producing More Marijuana For Medical Research

The federal government recently announced it will be producing more marijuana for medical research, specifically the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). They stated production yields will be increased from a targeted 21 kilograms to 650 kilograms (roughly 1,443 pounds). Clinical researchers have been calling for an increase demand as the only place they can legally obtain marijuana is through the federal government, from one farm, which exists on the campus of the University of Mississippi.

A new low THC strain of marijuana was created in Colorado called “Charlotte’s Web”, named for the little girl it saved from hundreds of daily epileptic seizures.

A government spokesman recently told TheHill.com, “The additional supply [of cannabis] to be manufactured in 2014 is designed to meet the current and anticipated research efforts involving marijuana. This projection of increased demand is due in part to the recent increased interest in the possible therapeutic uses of marijuana.” Traditionally the federal government only allowed research done on marijuana to prove it’s averse health effects in an effort to cull usable facts for the War on Drugs. Today, because of the dramatic results some patients have claimed to have, the federal government is finally allowing clinical trials to move forward, putting to rest the fact that marijuana has medicinal value once and for all.
