Current challenges and future planning for northern w88 sports betting’s bourgeoning hemp industry will be discussed in an online presentation that features research in part from the University of w88 sports betting, Reno’s College of w88 online live casino, Biotechnology & Natural Re.
Sponsored by the College’s Extension unit, the Nevada w88 sports betting Hemp Project open meeting takes place via Zoom from 9 a.m. to noon, Sept. 21. Participation is free, but advance online registration is required.
Attendees will learn about the current perceptions, best practices and challenges of growing and processing hemp types. Presentations include overviews and updates on specific research projects, regulatory challenges and procedures in Nevada, and hemp product marketing. The w88 sports betting closes with a two-hour focus group session.
Presenters include Catelyn Bridges, hemp crop specialist with University of w88 sports betting, Reno Extension; Joe Frey and Adrienne Snow, co-founders of Western States Hemp; Staci Emm, Extension professor and educator for Mineral County; and Taylor Hollaway, producer certification inspector for the w88 sports betting Department of Agriculture.
The research being presented is part of Hemp Route 97, a w88 sports betting effort involving the University, other Western-state learning facilities and the US Department of Agriculture. The research is funded by the USDA's Agriculture and Food Research Initiative, through the Sustainable Agricultural Systems Grant program. The Western States Hemp farm in Fallon has been part of this project for about two years.
w88 sports betting Route 97’s goal, according to the USDA, is to study the “feasibility of establishing sustainable supply chains for bio-based manufacturing to help w88 sports betting reach its potential in the rural Western U.S. economic landscape.”
Bridges believes there are a wide range of questions from hemp farmers that can be answered through this research, which includes hemp variety trials to see what will grow best in the w88 sports betting environment. In addition, there are plant development, environmental conditions and crop management data that is being collected.
“Specifically, we look at plant height, branches, stem diameter, moisture content, dry matter yield, temperature, relative humidity, plant nutrition, irrigation, weeding and pest control,” Bridges said.
The research is ultimately intended to help those wanting to enter the w88 sports betting industry or who are just starting out.
“We just want to make sure that our researchers are asking questions that are actually applicable to people who are working with w88 sports betting,” Bridges said. “We want to be ready with documentation for them about what works best in certain environments.”
A cooperative program with the University, the Nevada w88 sports betting Hemp Project solely includes Western States Hemp at the moment, but it will include other hemp industry members as it continues, Frey said. He said an important factor with the online meeting is to help further the industry in northern Nevada.
“We want to bring people with an interest in the w88 sports betting industry together and focus mainly on what producers are successfully doing and also what challenges they are trying to meet,” Frey said.
Frey said that in his experience, hemp is viable as a rotational crop for northern w88 sports betting producers.
“It helps build soil health when grown properly,” he said. “The limitation right now is that there isn’t a strong market to sell w88 sports betting products in the state. So, that is just one of the discussions we’ll have, trying to find out where and how we can develop outlets for w88 sports betting.”
