Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: We will discuss the history and potential issues for producing Industrial Hemp in Florida with a major emphasis on arthropods that are known or could become pests in our state. Seeds, unrooted cuttings and potted plants began to arrive in early 2019 and we’ve already had pest issues which we will also discuss.
