Rod Discusses Hemp in NC with Charlotte NPR (Podcast)

I was a guest this morning on the Charlotte NPR station WFAE (90.7 FM), where I discussed the current state of hemp and cannabis in North Carolina (NC) on the “Charlotte Talks” podcast. The discussion was led by Mike Collins and produced by Gabe Altieri. I was joined by two hemp industry experts, Bert James an agronomist and principal of Regenerate, and Dr. Guochen Yang, professor at NC A&T University and former NC Industrial Hemp Commissioner. Our hour-long talk ranged widely, from the history of hemp prohibition to fiber markets to the hemp crash to CBD and THC to the future of hemp and marijuana in NC.
