[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3183775, member: 5412"] Yes, the farm bill will take hemp from the class 1 drug classification if it passes. I haven't read the current bill, but the ones in the past funded SNAP and other welfare programs. I don't like them being included in a bill that affects farmers and should be a bill of their own. If they did that SNAP would go away or be much highly modified and scrutinized. , so it was bundled into the farm bill to force legislators to pass it every time it comes to a vote. Bingo! you are exactly correct. It's like a pyramid scheme. The top dogs make the change selling the seed and contracts to the masses. The masses have no market in Ok currently although that is changing. It won't be a free market crop like wheat or corn. You will have to go through contractors licensed by the state that take a cut to sell the seed and pays the state to have that license, and if you don't have the equipment to plant, you will have to contract someone with the equipment to plant and custom harvesters to get the crop in. Each one will take a cut. The $$$$ numbers the grower might get is not real and is part of the lunacy of hemp being the savior of the world. LOL. I've looked at this extensively and posted the consequences of planting hemp outside of the research units previously. It's still currently a class I drug no matter if hemp or pot. If the farm bill in its current wording passes, hemp will no longer be a class 1 drug. It Just opens the door for an acre of pot to be planted in the middle of 160 acres of hemp. Nobody but the grower would know the difference. It's identical. [/QUOTE]
