Is it? "leading to contaminated seeds, reduced oil yields, and in some cases, mandated crop destruction" sounds not like a political problem, or you mean the causes for those things are political?
- mholm 2y agoThese issues at least partially stem from the politics surrounding cannabis. 'Mandated crop destruction' is absolutely a political problem, because it's just driven by seeds cross pollinating into plants that exceed the arbitrary political limit. Oil yields and contaminated seeds are not specified, but might be due to similar arbitrary restrictions, rather than actual issues with the product

- uhhhhhhh 2y agoYields are real impacts from cross pollination and has zero to do with politics. CBD only strains with THC, vice versa. Lower strengths etc. All impact product quality and impact.
- tastyfreeze 2y agoThe labeling of seeds as "contaminated" is a political issue. Its not like seeds being pressed for oil are not good for that purpose if they are arbitrarily determined to be contaminated. I suspect the reduced oil yields are the result of the destruction requirements not because the plant made less oil.
