Nebraska has yet to update its hemp law to match the final federal rules and regulations.
Nebraska's hemp industry says it's going in the wrong direction. The state commission says two years ago there were 84 people holding hemp licenses – less than half remain in 2022.
Growers say outdated state regulations are getting in the way. In a field near Plattsmouth, Annette and Bruce Wiles had one of the first 10 licenses to grow hemp.
Now they’re selling their land. "Because our state just hasn't gotten behind it. You know Bruce and I are looking for what our options are," Annette Wiles said.
