THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE IS WORKING ON NEW RULES FOR THE MANUFACTURING OF HEMP. TWO PUBLIC MEETINGS WILL BE HELD ON THE SUBJECT…JUNE 27TH IN ALBUQUERQUE AND THE FOLLOWING DAY IN LAS CRUCES.
THE PROPOSAL WOULD SET UP REGULATIONS FOR LICENSING, FEES, AND INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR THOSE INVOLVED IN THE TESTING OF RAW HEMP. A NEW STATE LAW GIVES THE STATE DEPT OF AGRICULTURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT DEPT AUTHORITY TO REGULATE HEMP MANUFACTURERS, PROCESSORS, LABS AND RESEARCHERS.
