Farm Bill and Industrial Hemp

The Farm Bill passed the U.S. House by a vote of 251 to 166. Section 7606, Legitimacy of Industrial Hemp Research, is in the final bill. That is the good news.

The main issue is access to seed. The federal government has stated it will leave these states alone, but they do not mention access to seed. Moving seed over state borders is still illegal. Please contact your local senator and rep and get the conversation started. 

Infrastructure of the Hemp industry is the foundation to success!!
