“The motion carries. New Tentative Definition T71.5 Hempseed Meal Mechanically Extracted has been approved” With that, HSM (hempseed meal)for egg-laying chickens became the first federally approved animal feed ingredient using a component of the hemp plant (HSM). States recognizing Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) tentative definitions can immediately begin producing and selling this feed ingredient as labeled.

This creates so much confusion IMHO. If they called it Hemp Grains then it would made more sense as that is for consumption whereas seeds are for planting. I get many angry reactions from people contacting me to by Hemp Seeds and when they hear the price they go crazy. Only after discussion do I understand they are actually looking for Hemp Grains for their pigeons or chickens or fish as opposed to Hemp Seeds for planting. Also - What is the difference between "Hemp Seed Meal" made from the pressed grain cake and "Hemp Seed Flour" made from milling the actual grain? Mmm. I can see a whole lot of troubles coming further down the line.
Congrats 🎉!! Time to celebrate for a few moments before we get started on the next one!
