On April 26, 2019, the Senate Bill 5276 was signed into law by Gov. Jay Inslee, “authorizing hemp production in conformance with the agriculture improvement act of 2018 (2018 Farm Bill).”

A new state law allows hemp production, consistent with the federal Farm Bill. It also authorizes the Washington State Department of Agriculture (“WSDA”) to regulate the processing of hemp for food products that are allowable under federal law in the same manner as it regulates other food processing. If the FDA approves food ingredient uses for hemp extracts like CBD, those uses would be allowed under state law.

While CBD is not allowed as a food ingredient, WSDA licensed food processors can currently use other hemp products in food, such as hulled hemp seeds, hemp seed protein power and hemp seed oil, provided they comply with all other requirements.

According to state data, the state had 11 licensed growers in 2018.
The Capital Press reported that Washington farmers have agreed to plant more than 6,000 acres of hemp in 2019 comparing to 140 acres in 2018 and 175 acres in 2017.

The massive increase in Washington hemp crops comes after state officials approved hemp cultivation for CBD oil production. Since the April reforms, the state Agriculture Department has licensed 35 new growers, 21 of which also obtained a processing license. The department is reviewing another 20 to 25 applications.
