Bill MacDonald, coordinator of NC’s Commercial Cannabis Production (CCP) program, provides commentary on the Canadian cannabis industry in this January 7 story in CBC News.
MacDonald discusses the challenges of producing high quality cannabis on a large scale, saying that producers are faced with pest control and crop management issues.

MacDonald will deliver a talk titled ‘What’s That Smell?’ at the Southwest Agricultural Conference in Ridgetown, Ont. MacDonald was also interviewed about cannabis farming on CBC Radio.
