Iowa Hemp/THC/CBD and More with Robin Pruisner

A couple of weeks ago we shared a story about hemp production in Arizona and how our guest John Hess said it was "the wild west". It would seem it's not much different in Iowa. With me for this extended conversation about  hemp production, THC and CBD is Robin Pruisner the Iowa Hemp Administrator for the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. Here she'll talk about the rules, regulations and risks involved in growing hemp in Iowa. Robin also suggests that growers or potential growers take a look at Hemp Benchmarks a site that tracks prices and more.  Strap in...lots to cover.
