An Act relating to industrial hemp; and providing for an effective date.

Summary

The bill sets up a state‑run industrial hemp program that requires anyone who wants to grow hemp to register, follow approved seed and isolation rules, and have their crop tested for THC. It gives the commissioner of natural resources authority to issue stop orders, enforce penalties, set fees and conduct inspections, with reduced fees and testing requirements for very small growers. The aim is to allow legal hemp production while preventing high‑THC cannabis and protecting consumers.
