Global Cannabis Testing Market Projected To Reach $5.87 Billion By 2031
The emerging global cannabis industry is comprised of various sectors, with some having more profit potential than others. One sector of the worldwide cannabis industry that shows the most promise is the cannabis product testing sector.
Every legal cannabis market on the planet has different policies and regulations to some degree, but one constant seems to be that cannabis products must be tested before hitting retail shelves, and rightfully so. Cannabis testing ensures that products are safe for human consumption.
Additionally, cannabis testing captures cannabinoid levels which is a requirement in most legal cannabis markets. It lets regulators know if cannabis products fit within certain THC/CBD parameters and helps inform consumers and patients of the cannabinoid content of the products that they are purchasing.
In addition to cannabinoid levels, testing can also determine terpene profiles, which is an emerging area of cannabis testing and research.
