260.858 Lawful and unlawful conduct. (1) (2) (3) (4) Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, it is lawful for a licensee, or his or her agent, to cultivate, handle, or process hemp or hemp products in the Commonwealth. It is unlawful for a person who does not hold a license issued by the department, or who is not an agent of a licensee, to cultivate, handle, process, or market living hemp plants or viable seeds, leaf materials, or floral materials derived from hemp.

Penalties for persons who possess such hemp extract materials without a license are the same as those penalties that are applicable to persons who violate KRS Chapter 218A, relating to marijuana. Nothing in this chapter authorizes any person to violate any federal or state law or regulation. Effective: February 10, 2020 History: Amended 2020 Ky. Acts ch. 1, sec. 5, effective February 10, 2020. -- Created 2017 Ky. Acts ch. 45, sec. 3, effective March 20, 2017.
