Hi Jeff,
Thank you for updating us about the progress. The growers will definitely be happy that we are now able to help them. Just to make it clear, can I diagnose hemp samples in the Diagnostic lab? As long as I destroy the samples after diagnosis and not use in research or is it off limits for now?


Thank you.

Bindu,

We now have clearance  for Arizona Cooperative Extension to respond to requests from growers to deal with issues associated with commercial hemp production.

 Please proceed as you requested earlier this week, we are clear and good to go  in terms of Extension responding to requests from commercial growers.

We do NOT have clearance for planting of commercial hemp on any of our Ag Centers at this time. We are working on that next.

If you have any questions feel free to let me know.

Best regards,

Jeff
