Yes, it is legal, but you still have to apply for the Hemp Pilot Program.
Every state will still have their guidelines, and may not even acknowledge the 2018 farm bill guidelines yet.

Hemp matter became constitutional in Florida on July 1, 2019, and the state is attempting federal agreement to commence hemp farming, to produce “Fresh from Florida” CBD oil and other hemp stocks. Hemp could be an innovative, money-making industry for the state.

In 2019, hemp became legal in Florida, regulated by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). The release of hemp farming licenses was initiated in 2020. The application for a cultivation license is available online. On the other hand, CBD products are being regulated and must meet the guidelines for content according to FDACS rules

Yes! The Farm Bill passed in 2018 removed hemp from the federal list of scheduled substances; one still has to abide by state regulations, though.

Yes, it is one of the most recent states to do so. Like any business endeavor, you will want to have a business plan in place and identify any hurdles that you may have to overcome in the process, so you start off on the right path.

Yipppeee! Hemp is now legal in Florida, since July 1, 2019. Florida is seeking federal compliance so it can launch hemp farms to produce what they are calling “Fresh from Florida” hemp products and CBD oil. Every speculation suggests that hemp will be a multibillion-dollar industry in Florida.
