True that they are beneficial but then you'd have to face so many legality procedures just to get, specially in countries that still don't allow any form of hemp products

It is true that not all the countries allow the sale of hemp seeds. But at some countries you can buy hemp seeds at local supermarket or grocery store. Strains of these seeds are usually controlled. So even if you grow a plant of these seeds, it will not have active ingredient THC or CBD. This renders those seeds useless for people who want to grow hemp for recreational use. Therefore keeping these seeds prohibited is not fair from citizen perspective. Governments that prohibit sale and use of hemp seeds are taking away opportunity from citizens. Opportunity to produce food and many other products like: oil, nutrition bars, protein powders made from hemp seeds. Ban on a crop that could potentially be used for food is ridiculous. Why on earth citizens would not be allowed to use and sell hemp products? Governments did not create hemp plant nor created this reality. Therefore a government cannot take the right from citizens to use this plant.

A majority lack the understanding of hemp seed potential, I'm sure as most countries who banned the crop already face a high rate of addiction so in their ideals, anything related to hemp should be banned without giving it another thought. But given the time that they would eventually realize it's benefits as a crop, I'm sure it will help out a lot of farmers who grow the seeds

I hope so. And i hope the government if said countries would also be looser on the regulations if in the case it be allowed in those countries. Could be good as a sort of "superfood" and as a booster to the economy. I believe japan has had a history on cultivating hemp seeds?
