Yes, you can legally grow industrial hemp in Oklahoma, along with almost all other states in America. You do need to get a license first, but once that is in place, you’re good to grow 🙂

In this hazardous condition of the global warming issue, stating a law issue about hemp industries seems logical! Growing hemp is now legal in Oklahoma, symbolizing the agricultural lead program. Beforehand industrial hemp could only be shipped for particular goals. The formal meaning of marijuana has changed to exclude hemp grown under the program.

Industrial hemp can only be shipped to Oklahoma before for specific purposes. But through the pursuant of the Oklahoma Industrial Hemp Agricultural Pilot Program, growing of hemp is now legal in Oklahoma. But it would be best if you had a license authorized and issued by the Department for you to be able to cultivate hemp.

Yes! You will need to create an account and apply for a license, as Moogdummy stated. Other than that, it is one of the more relaxed states to grow in. Once you have obtained the necessary info and the license, make sure to have a business plan in place. This is like any business endeavor, and you will want to start on the right path, a plan ensures this.

Yes! However, there are still guidelines set in place at the state level; you must apply to be a grower.

Yes, it is legal since the 2018 farm bill passed; it made it legal for all 50 states.
Though, every state will have its own regulations surrounding its own hemp program.
In order to apply, you have to create an account on OHID.OHIO.GOV and then proceed with the application process into their hemp program.
