Unfortunately, Nebraska does not have a medical marijuana program, but it has decriminalized marijuana to a certain extent. This means there is usually no prison time or criminal record for first-time possession of a small amount of marijuana for personal consumption; the infraction is treated like a minor traffic violation.
Nebraska does have an active hemp industry; hemp being a distinct variety of the plant species cannabis sativa L. that contains very little (less than 1%) tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
