From seed to harvest to processing, acreage owners and home gardeners are asking a lot of questions about hemp.
Since the 2019 Legislature passed into law the farm bill which would allow hemp farming in Nebraska, it is time to learn what all is involved in this process for the small producer. Dave Sanders will lead this class that will cover licenses/permits, seed sources /seed sexing, soil types, growing cycle, sexing plants, identification of the parts of the plant, insects/prevention, harvest time/drying and lab tests required to comply with the law.
***Disclaimer: This class and its contents are solely intended for the purpose of preparing potential small-scale producers to become more familiar with the challenges and rewards of growing hemp with no more than 0.03% THC, as permitted by law.
***No questions will be discussed or answered regarding the growing or using of any illegal products or plants. If you feel you must ask these types of questions, you may be asked to leave the class.
