Product Definition:
Legal marijuana is a term used to describe cannabis that has been legalized for medical or recreational use. The importance of legal marijuana and cannabis is significant because it allows people to access the drug in a safe and legal way.
Indoor:
Indoor is the cultivation of cannabis plants indoors, in complete darkness. Indoor cultivation helps preserve the potency of marijuana and protect it from external contaminants such as light, heat, and pollution. It also helps grow high quality marijuana with a higher yield than outdoor or greenhouse cultivation.
Greenhouse:
The greenhouse is a structure that is used to grow plants, vegetables, and herbs. It helps in increasing the yield of the crops by controlling various environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, and light. Greenhouses are also known as horticulture greenhouses or agricultural greenhouses. They are built using transparent polycarbonate sheets or glass panes to allow maximum sunlight in for growing plants inside it.
Application Insights:
Recreational application dominated the global market in 2017. Increasing demand for marijuana and cannabis products for recreational use has been a major factor driving the growth of this segment. Recreational applications include smoking, vaporization, drinking tea, coffee or chocolate with added marijuana and cannabis products, etc. Medical application is expected to be the fastest-growing segment over the forecast period owing to increasing usage of marijuana and its derivatives as an alternative treatment for various medical conditions including chronic pain; mental disorders; cancer; diabetes; cardiovascular diseases (CVDs); etc. Various therapeutic benefits such as anti-inflammatory properties along with antioxidant capabilities are believed to be responsible for numerous medical applications across various disease categories leading towards increased market share of this segment during the forecast period.
Global legal marijuana.
Regional Analysis:
The North American region accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017. The legalization of marijuana in Canada and the decriminalization of marijuana for both medical and adult-use in various states of the U.S., including California, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, Arizona, Washington D.C., Guam and Puerto Rico have contributed to its dominance over other regions during that period.
Moreover many countries such as Uruguay are about to follow suit by legalizing cannabis completely or partially which will further boost its demand globally over the forecast period. Moreover Latin America is one of the most lucrative markets due to increasing awareness regarding cannabis among millennials along with a rise in disposable income levels especially among middle class groups that make up approximately 60%of LATAM's population (Brazil being an exception).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing legalization of marijuana for medical and recreational use: As of January 2018, 29 states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuana for medical use, while 8 states and D.C. have legalized it for recreational use. This number is only expected to grow in the coming years, as more people come to see the benefits of cannabis-based treatments.
- Growing acceptance among the general population: A recent Gallup poll found that 64% of Americans now support legalizing marijuana – an all-time high! This growing acceptance will help to further legitimize cannabis as a mainstream treatment option.
- Advances in cannabinoid research: The last few years have seen a surge in cannabinoid research, with scientists uncovering new ways that these compounds can benefit human health. As this research continues to develop, it will only add to the growing body of evidence supporting cannabis’ therapeutic potential.
