Surveys for marijuana workers and former marijuana workers
At present time, there's very little data on the business and labor side of the marijuana industry. Most of what shows up in verifiable public record comes from law enforcement encounters and criminal investigations -- and that only represents a small portion of what's happening in the rest of the underground industry.
As full-scale recreational legalization becomes a reality in one state after another, we'll be able to track the players and market forces shaping those markets. But until California legalizes marijuana, or the federal government changes it's position on the controlled substance, growers and marijuana workers in the Emerald Triangle will continue to be difficult subjects to study.
Below, we've prepared a few surveys designed to gather information about how working in the marijuana industry affects your health, and what the job market looks like to former marijuana workers re-entering the workforce. FarWest.FM is also in the process of developing surveys to gather data on violence in the marijuana industry and the work related experiences of so-called "trimmigrants," who pass through known marijuana cultivation regions during harvest time looking for temporary work processing the crop.
