You need to comment to reserve your right to challenge these new USDA regulations. USDA basically proposing:
- Sampling via DEA registered labs only
- Sampling via top 2 inches of hemp flower only
- 15 day harvest rule
- Strict 0.3% THC limit
- 3 strike penalty system that will ban you from the industry if you go inadvertently hot (over 0.5% THC) 3x within 5 years

Please do so before it’s too late and ask your hemp industry friends to do so too. This affects us all, we’re all in this together
