It's legal to import industrial hemp (provided it's not for consumption). What's this great urge to grow it domestically?

Same reason farmers cultivate any crop domestically, I'd guess.

You can even purchase consumable hemp. But they're really only interested in getting loaded.

It's legal to import industrial hemp (provided it's not for consumption) crude oil. What's this great urge to grow drill for it domestically?

Perhaps it would be more cost-efficient? Would you have any real objection to domestic production if farmers were subject to having the THC levels of their crops regularly tested by authorities?
