Wisconsin’s Attorney General says the uncertainty for Wisconsin hemp farmers and processors is over. Brad Schimel tells Brownfield farmers planning on growing industrial hemp can proceed as long as they are licensed and registered through the state’s ag department. “Keep moving forward with the process with DATCP (Department of Ag, Trade, and Consumer Protection). Once they give their approval, then move forward. There’s nothing stopping farmers from engaging in the industrial hemp process in Wisconsin right now.” Schimel says it is also legal to obtain and use products from other pilot program states.
