Interesting! I'd be interested to know more about BIG CORPORATIONS trying to bust into the herb supply business. Tobacco seems like the most logical to me... It would seem odd to me though if bigpharma was interested in herb... or ADM and the likes.
Tobacco companies already operate in an ethical grey area... whereas bigpharma and agbusiness try to appear ethically sound!! Although we all know they're not...
