(WRN) -Wisconsin farm groups want changes to the federal hemp law.The Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation, Wisconsin Hemp Alliance, Wisconsin Hemp Farmers and Manufacturers Association, and Wisconsin Farmers Union all wrote a letter to the U-S Department of Agriculture asking for changes in the law.
They want to see more than one lab in Wisconsin that can test hemp; they want more time to harvest their crop; and they are worried that the federal government wants to destroy an entire field of hemp if it comes back too high for T-H-C. A comment period about the new rules is underway. The USDA could make changes once that is done.
