Medical only ('therapeutic marijuana', La. R.S. 40:1046). Pharmacy dispensing since August 2019. Only two licensed producers statewide, tied to the Southern University and LSU agricultural centres.
What is not published

- The only recurring publication is an annual producer-side report.
- The Board of Pharmacy route, which once carried permit data, closed on 1 January 2025.
Why there is no page here
A producer-side annual report cannot answer what consumers spent, which is this site's headline measure everywhere else.
Why this page exists at all
Every US cannabis jurisdiction gets an entry on this site, including the ones with nothing to chart. A jurisdiction that is simply missing looks like an oversight; a jurisdiction whose absence is stated, sourced and dated is a finding. This site is a record of what governments publish, and that record has to include what they do not.
Nothing on this page is an estimate. Where a figure exists in press coverage, a law-firm summary or budget testimony but not in a published government artifact, it is named as unusable rather than repeated.
