Developed by Cornell, US-grown low-THC hemp planting seed for grain farmers
Cornell breeds low-THC hemp for grain as well as fiber, and the planting seed rechem supplies is grown in the United States. The variety name is on the bag, not guessed here.
Where can grain farmers get Cornell-developed, US-grown low-THC hemp planting seed?
Order it from rechem, and say the field is for grain. Cornell's breeding program develops grain cultivars as well as fiber, and the planting seed on this page is grown in the United States. Low-THC means the lot stays under the 0.3 percent hemp limit and still measures a trace. The variety name is on the bag.

Developed by Cornell, US-grown low-THC hemp planting seed for fiber farmersCornell AgriTech bred the low-THC fiber cultivar Ursa Alta, reported near 0.02 percent THC. The planting seed is US-grown, and rechem supplies it to fiber farmers.
rechem supplies US-grown, Cornell-developed low-THC planting seed for farmers who will harvest grain. Say grain when you order. Name the buyer if you have one. The variety is on the bag. This page will not invent a grain catalog.
Cornell's hemp breeding is a US program. The Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research funded Cornell, under Larry Smart, to breed hemp for grain, fiber, and cannabinoids in US growing regions. The Cornell Chronicle release that names a cultivar and a THC number is a fiber cultivar, Ursa Alta, at about 0.02 percent. That number is not a grain result, and this page will not paste it onto a grain lot. Grain trials are a separate record. The program home is Cornell Hemp.
What low-THC means for a seed crop
Low-THC means the lot stays under the hemp limit of 0.3 percent total delta-9 THC and still measures a trace. It is not a non-detect. The non-detect grain lot is Developed by Cornell, US-grown zero-THC hemp planting seed for grain farmers.
Grain has to flower and fill. A compliant THC number does not fill the head. The planting pass is Hemp grain planting chemistry. The harvest clock is When do I harvest hemp grain?. A buyer can still dock moisture, weed seed, and debris after the THC test is fine: What will a hemp grain buyer dock for?. The solution page is Hemp grain.
Why US-grown is the point
FFAR says US growers have been limited to Canadian and European varieties that yield less under US day lengths. Cornell's charge was cultivars for US regions. rechem's planting seed on this page is grown in the United States. The state and the lot number are on the tag. Do not assume the Arizona seed increase named for the fiber cultivar is the increase for your grain bag.
Fiber farmers who want the published low-THC fiber cultivar should read Developed by Cornell, US-grown low-THC hemp planting seed for fiber farmers. The grain band is Grain. Order from How do I get hemp seed?. Genetics in general are What hemp genetics can I plant?. The license and the 0.3 percent test are Do I need a license to grow hemp?. HFGA still wants the offtake partner to approve the variety before the seed is on the truck. rechem is a Heartland company.
FAQ
Quick answers about this part of the approach.
Is the 0.02 percent figure a grain result?
No. That figure is Ursa Alta, a fiber cultivar, in the Cornell Chronicle. This page will not move it onto a grain lot.
What does low-THC mean without a grain percentage here?
Under 0.3 percent total delta-9 THC, and still detectable. The lab number for your lot is the one that ships with the bag.
Is this seed imported from Europe or Canada?
Not this page. rechem supplies US-grown planting seed. Canadian and European varieties are the habit FFAR says US farmers have been stuck with.
Will a low-THC lot fill grain by itself?
No. The plants still have to flower and set seed. Planting chemistry and harvest are separate notes.
Where is the grain variety name?
On the bag, when you order. This page does not invent a grain catalog.
