Oklahoma state agencies are working to catch up to the medical marijuana industry’s explosive growth since it was legalized in 2018.
As of Nov. 10, the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority (OMMA) has licensed 381,429 patient licenses, which is 9.6% of the state population.
The agency has also issued 13,281 marijuana business licenses. Oklahoma’s 9,227 licensed growers surpasses the 8,474 cultivation licenses in California, where marijuana is legal for recreational use.
