Oklahoma
Retail licenses for Oklahoma's medical cannabis program declined 8% in 2020,
the first contraction for the open-license market since MMJ sales began in 2018.
Despite surging sales and patient numbers, Oklahoma ended 2020 with
181 fewer retail licenses than it did in 2019. Industry insiders say the contraction
was expected and is the inevitable result of speculation, increasing competition and
market saturation in a state that has no license caps for cultivators, processors and
dispensaries. Despite the 2020 decline, the state led the nation in the number of
retail licenses, ending the year with 2,057.
Oregon
The state's Water Resources Department uncovered water violations by 33% of
hemp growers in a 2020 audit reviewing operations in southwestern Oregon. The
department reviewed 187 the 1,000 hemp farms in the region, which represents
about half the state's hemp operations. Most of the violations were given to hemp
farmers who irrigated their crops with well water, despite lacking water rights. More
than 40% of the hemp growers visited said they had been trucking in water from
municipal sources. The agency attributed the bulk of the problems to a lack of
education and outreach, saying most farmers weren't aware of restrictions.
