Belonging to the Cannabaceae family, the cannabis plant is cultivated in tropical and temperate areas across the globe. Delta-9 tetrahydro-cannabinol, also known as THC, is the main psychoactive constituent of cannabis which slows down the activity of the central nervous system and can produce hallucinogenic effects. In North America, the regulatory landscape is being modified so as to decriminalise the usage and possession of cannabis, which is helping in promoting the commercial cannabis business in the region. Moreover, the expanding research and development in the medical applications of cannabis is expected to create positive opportunities for the growth of the market.
