The USDA submitted its interim final rule, titled “Establishment of a Domestic Hemp Production Program,” to the White House Office of Management and Budget on June 27. We should hear from OMB any day now.(they promised early fall) What will be interesting to see is how strict the guidelines will be especially in regards if hemp seeds need to be certified.
On September 9th Canopy Growth was able to secure a meeting with the OMB to present their recommendations. There are very few companies that use certified seeds and it will be a great advantage to cvsi if certified seeds are required. USDA interim rules will probably come before FDA.
