The Georgia Hemp Farming Act, effective October 1, heralds a new era for hemp growers and processors. The law, signed into law by Gov. Brian Kemp, imposes strict regulations on the cultivation, processing and sale of cannabis throughout the state. Under Senate Bill 94 (SB 94), all aspects of hemp production, including cultivation, testing, packaging, and retailing, are regulated by the Georgia Department of Agriculture (GDA).

Obtaining a grower license is essential for farmers considering entering the market. The GDA requires a legal description and GPS coordinates of the cannabis field or greenhouse, and the license fee is $50 per acre with a cap of $5,000. If growers plan to process the cannabis themselves, they will need an additional $25,000 processing permit.

The law sets clear guidelines for permissible concentrations of THC, capping it at 0.3% in line with federal regulations. Cannabis products for consumption are also highly regulated, with restrictions placed on advertising, packaging, and labeling. For example, the sale of these products to individuals under the age of 21 is prohibited, and signage must be posted in retail spaces informing consumers of this law. Additionally, no products may be sold within 500 feet of a school. This provision went into effect on July 1st.

Annual inspections ensure that producers comply with these regulations, and failure to meet standards can lead to fines and license revocation.

For more information on obtaining a grower license, visit the GDA website or review the full text of SB 94.
