AI Summary
This bill establishes that marijuana cultivated for medical use by a nonprofit medical marijuana dispensary or a designated caregiver is an agricultural commodity subject to regulation by the Department of Agriculture. It requires that laboratories providing analyses of medical marijuana be certified by the Department and prohibits certain relationships between laboratory employees and medical marijuana dispensaries. The bill also requires the Department to establish inspection and testing protocols for medical marijuana, and appropriates $2 million from the Medical Marijuana Fund to the Department of Agriculture to implement these new provisions.
