Yes and no. While the same nutritional value attributed to hemp for human consumption applies to its use for animal consumption, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet fully approved hemp to be sold commercially for use as animal feed federally. Some states like Montana, however, have taken the step on their own to allow hemp to be used in commercial animal feed, which will open up a new market to hemp growers and processors and help alleviate the ongoing global animal feed shortage. Delta Ag is actively leading the way with other industry leaders to educate lawmakers at the federal and state levels on hemp’s value for use as animal feed.
