A colloquial shortening for the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018. A comprehensive piece of U.S. legislation that governs a wide array of agricultural and food programs, including hemp cultivation. The 2018 Farm Bill is particularly significant in the cannabis industry because it legalized the cultivation of industrial hemp (cannabis with less than 0.3% THC when tested 30 days before being harvested) at the federal level in the United States. This opened the door for the widespread production of hemp-derived products, including CBD.
