Rich Fletcher and I are fresh off the plane from a field visit in Hawley, MN to Amanda Jelinek's farm. Amanda grew an array of hemp fiber genetics, to dual purpose, to single purpose grain genetics. She in partnership with MN’s Agricultural Utilization Research Institute (AURI) convened experts from the region to speak on hemp markets, supply chain and products. Regional hemp experts like Roger Gussiaas attended, along with Horizon Hemp Seeds and Ken Meyer from South Dakota. Amanda grew NWG 2730, our first commercial dual-purpose variety, NWG 10, our commercial hybrid with the #Amplify trait, and an experimental hybrid bred for more northern latitudes. (commercial release of a related hybrid next year) We learned a lot about farm needs in the region, and are grateful to the whole team for an excellent field day and plot - good to meet everyone, looking forward to next season! #minnesotahemp #hempgenetics #hemphybrids #hempfieldday #varietytrial #minnesotafarm #agriculture
