Indiana Agency Warns of Unreputable Hempseed Vendors Nationwide
Donald Robison of the Office of Indiana State Chemist offers tips on how to avoid bad actors.
The Office of Indiana State Chemist (OISC) is warning growers to be aware of active untrustworthy hempseed suppliers not just in Indiana, but also throughout the country.
Donald Robison, an OISC seed administrator, expressed that the OISC received its first reported issues of unreputable hemp suppliers in Indiana in spring 2020. As the year continued, more reports started to emerge, driving the OISC to issue a warning early this year. We had a recent situation where a grower in Indiana who wanted to grow hemp bought seeds from an untrusted supplier in California, Robison tells
WEST LAFAYETTE — The Office of Indiana State Chemist (OISC) is warning the public about predatory hemp seed vendors known to be currently active in the state.
Untrustworthy hemp seed suppliers pose risk to farmers
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. The Office of Indiana State Chemist (OISC) is warning the public about predatory hemp seed vendors known to be currently active in the state.
This year marks the first time hemp will be grown in Indiana as a commercial crop, not a research crop, said Donald Robison, OISC seed administrator. That means that the number of hemp growers around the state is increasing and so, too, are reports of faulty seed and untrustworthy vendors.
In some cases, Robison said, people are paying for seed and the product is never delivered. In other cases, the product doesn’t match what is promised by the label. With hemp especially, this can be a problem as many buyers end up with a marijuana, not a hemp, crop.
