NYS Agriculture and Markets Bill supports our farmers
Including cannabis in New York State’s Agriculture and Markets Law is an important step toward extending the same protections on zoning and taxes that protect all farmers to those who also cultivate cannabis, and we’re thankful to Senator Michelle Hinchey and Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo for their support in getting this measure over the finish line. We implore Governor Hochul to sign this bill and ensure that New York’s farmers continue to have access to this new crop and the advantages it can deliver as CANY continues to support a market that’s data-driven in its construct and lives up to the equity goals of our state’s Cannabis Law.
