Agreed - we could finally make good on all those 'clean, green' lies we've been selling internationally...
Exactly.
And from an environmental point of view, high cost per volume, value-added exports are better thsn bulky raw materials. Replacing some of the cows with high-quality therepeutic cannabis might help us become a bit closer to living up to our image.
Well unfortunately that might hurt a few farmers that didn't read the forecasts and went broke when the wool market crashed. They're doing the exact same thing decades later with dairy, so we really can't let them get upset again...
