AI Summary

This bill regulates the production and sale of hemp in Wisconsin. It defines hemp as the plant Cannabis sativa L. with a delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) concentration of not more than 0.3% on a dry weight basis, or up to 1% if allowed under federal law. The bill allows individuals and businesses to engage in a wide range of hemp-related activities, from planting and harvesting to processing and selling, subject to rules and regulations promulgated by the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP). The bill also creates a licensing system for hemp producers, if required under federal law, and provides for the testing and certification of hemp. Additionally, the bill makes several changes to state laws to align with the regulation of hemp, such as exempting hemp from certain controlled substance definitions and providing defenses for certain offenses involving THC. Overall, this bill aims to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for hemp in Wisconsin in accordance with federal law.
