Prohibits the manufacture, process, or offer for sale (rather than sale or distribution) of a cannabinoid product unless the cannabinoid product has labeling and packaging and has undergone lab testing (rather than has labeling and has undergone lab testing) that meet labeling, packaging, and minimum testing requirements pursuant to rules adopted by the Department of Agriculture.
