Project Overview

The project Risk Management for Improved Viability of the Northeast Hemp Industry had New York and Vermont hemp growers and processors work together to identify the areas of risk in production, marketing, financial, legal, and human risks.  The growers and processors prioritize risks into three areas marketing, financial, and legal then focused on creating solutions to mitigate risk. This project will help future hemp growers and processors be informed of the risk involved in the hemp industry but make plans to minimize risk to their future operation.
