ASTM International, one of the world's leading standards organisations, has announced that its board of directors has approved the formation of a committee on cannabis (D37). The organisation also announced that the committee will hold its first official meeting June 11-12 in Toronto.
Nearly 100 industry representatives, laboratories, associations, and others have been involved in organising the new group. Several participants are featured in a new video and in a story for the May issue of Standardization News.
According to organisers, the committee's initial focus will be on standards development in six technical areas, which will be its subcommittees: indoor and outdoor horticulture and agriculture; quality management systems; laboratory; processing and handling; security and transportation; and
personnel training, assessment, and credentialing.
