When the 2018 Farm Bill passed last year, it allowed for the legalization of hemp in the United States but with little rules or regulations it created confusion with agencies like the DEA, Custom and Border Protection and banks on how to regulate hemp production.
Provisions have been put in place following the establishment of the new Hemp Production Program.
Senator Daines released a statement following the announcement of the program and said “I’m very glad to see Secretary Perdue and the USDA move forward with the creation of the Hemp Production Program which will help provide regulatory certainty for Montana farmers interested in hemp production.”
