There are now temporary rules for industrial hemp in Oregon.

The rules, which take effect immediately, modify production and handling requirements for registered growers and handlers.

The new modifications are:

· There is no longer a minimum acreage requirement.
· Growing in greenhouses or other indoor areas is permitted.
· Planting in pots or other containers is permitted.
· Any method of propagation is allowed including planting seeds, starts, or the use of clones or cuttings.
· A registration for growing industrial hemp may be used for multiple areas. While each noncontagious growing area must be declared, there are no additional fees.
· Growing and handling industrial hemp is no longer covered under the same registration and requires a separate fee for each.

In addition, registrations are now issued annually and are good for one year, instead of the three year licenses and permits previously issued.

The temporary rules will be in effect for 180 days. ODA is expected to propose permanent rules later this year.
