Two New Mexico Cannabis Farms Ordered To Pay $1 Million Over Multiple Violations
New Mexico’s Cannabis Control Division cracked down after investigating
Two New Mexico cannabis farms in Torrance County will have their licenses revoked by the state’s Cannabis Control Division (CCD) after investigators found the producers had reportedly exceeded plant count limits, not utilized the mandatory seed-to-sale tracking system and hosted unsanitary conditions.
Bliss Farm, located outside of Estancia, is accused by CCD of not reporting any of its plants in BioTrack — the state’s cannabis tracking system that all license holders are required to use. Investigators testified they had observed cannabis harvested during visits to the farm, but that those harvests were never entered in the tracking system. This, according to the CCD’s final decision and order, led the division to believe the flower may have been sold illicitly.
CCD also alleged the farm possessed more than the legal amount of plants permitted by state law. Bliss Farm’s license allowed for 20,000 plants but investigators allege the property was growing around 30,000.
