The nation's food ministers have rejected advice from Australia's food standards agency that hemp be allowed to be used in food.
Hemp is a species of cannabis, but unlike marijuana contains no or very low levels of the mind-altering chemical compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
It is used in Australia in clothing and building products, but cannot be used in food.
