    Surely fertilizer and other additions can be used to adjust this, or genetic editing can be used to incorporate some stuff?

    Okay, but almost everything is trademarked, doesn’t mean it can’t be bought/sold?

      That’s a lot of expense compared to just importing US-grown hops, as there’s a lot of soil to adjust

      And yeah, trademarks on plants are no joke, there’s a bunch of restrictions on buying/selling them etc.
