It's a reasonable analogy, but I gather that the regulatory demands are currently much higher for small cannabis producers. A close relative of mine is a small-scale producer and the restrictions, price drop, and delays from the legalization process have been making it hard for them to stay in business. Hopefully it gets worked out soon because I'd love for the ecosystem to end up looking like microbreweries, but I fear that it'll end up being more like other agribusinesses.
