Grow hemp in Ohio in 2022 by following all proper licensing, reporting, and sampling protocol. Though growing hemp in Ohio using Feminized Hemp Seeds can be a great investment for new and existing farmers, everyone that wants to participate must follow a strict set of guidelines to do so legally in each US state. Bomar Agra Estates with our five years of experience in the hemp planting seasons will explain the precise requirements necessary to grow hemp in Ohio and buy Ohio hemp seeds.

The Ohio Hemp Program was created to allow licensed individuals to grow and process hemp for fiber, grain production, and dietary needs in Ohio. The program is administered by the Ohio Department of Agriculture and is approved by the USDA. It is legal to grow and process hemp in Ohio state, but growers and processors must be licensed. Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) has created hemp cultivation and processing rules.

The Ohio Department of Agriculture Hemp Program will accept applications for the 2021 growing season beginning Monday, November 9, 2020 through Friday, April 9, 2022. New applicants and renewals can apply at the hemp licensing portal on ODA’s website. All current licensees must also complete the annual update form by April 9, 2022.
