In the cannabis industry, seed-to-sale refers to a thorough process—manual or, more commonly, digital—of tracking cannabis and related products throughout the entire lifecycle, particularly to satisfy regulatory compliance requirements.[1][2][3][4]
History
An international concept of using a "tracking and tracing" system for cannabis growth and sales as "a shift from prohibition to regulation and control" has at least been discussed as early as 2003.[5] However, at least in the United States, this concept didn't begin to fully materialize until the late 2000s. In the summer of 2009, California-based Medical Marijuana, Inc. began marketing its Turnkey Collective Solution as a tool for the fledgling medical marijuana industry to "operate within the guidelines of all laws and regulations regarding the tracking of the marijuana from grow cycle to final distribution."[6] Shortly after, in 2010 and 2011, a similar concept sprung up in Colorado in the form of BioTrackTHC[7] and LeafTrack.[8]
