Hemp Grower's
License. If you intend to grow
hemp or to "handle"
hemp in
Texas, you will need a
hemp grower's
license. The
license fee is not to exceed $100 and the
Texas Department of Agriculture will be responsible adopting and processing application forms. HB1325 requires that the application be accompanied by:
- A legal description of the location on which the hemp will be handled or cultivated and the GPS coordinates of the location;
- Written consent from the applicant or from the land owner (if not the applicant) allowing the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Public Safety, and any state or local law enforcement agency to enter the location for a physical inspection or to ensure compliance with the hemp growth program; and
- An application fee.
The Department of Agriculture will certainly add to the current application requirements of the Bill.
Once the hemp grower’s license application is submitted, the Department is required to issue a license to a qualified applicant no later than sixty (60) days after it receives the completed application. Once granted, the hemp grower’s license has a term of one year and is eligible for renewal thereafter.
Persons convicted of a felony relating to controlled substances are ineligible to apply within ten years of the date of their conviction. If a hemp grower is convicted of a felony relating to a controlled substance while holding a license, their hemp grower’s license is subject to revocation. Supplying false information on a growth application may also result in denial of the application and subsequent ineligibility.
