HF 2380: Relating to acreage limitations for the production of hemp, and including effective date provisions

Signed into law

What it does

ACREAGE LIMITATION —— EXCEPTION. This bill amends Code chapter 204, the Iowa Hemp Act (IHA), which in part requires the department of agriculture and land stewardship (DALS) to regulate the production of hemp.2). The IHA does not specifically address the presence in hemp of the nonnarcotic compound cannabidiol.4). Until June 30, 2022, a qualified producer is subject to an interim license fee based on the size of the licensed crop site, equaling not more than a base amount plus $5 per acre. The base amount is $500 for a licensed crop site that is five acres or less; $750 for a licensed crop site that is more than five acres but not more than acres; and $1,000 for each licensed crop site that is more than acres.
