Hemp Industry Friends,
Hopefully you've heard, perhaps you haven't, but the USDA is currently considering regulations that will hurt small-medium sized hemp farmers in our industry.
You can find the proposed regulations and comment here:
https://www.regulations.gov/document?D=AMS-SC-19-0042-0001
What's so bad about these proposed regulations? Here are my concerns:
1. Sampling via DEA registered labs only
2. Sampling via top 2 inches of the hemp flower only
3. 15 day harvest rule
4. Strict 0.3% THC limit
5. 3 strike penalty system for sampling inadvertently hot (over 0.5% THC) 3x within 5 years = banned for 5 years
