Hemp survey in mail
USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service mailed its first Hemp Acreage and Production Survey in October. The survey will collect information on the total planted and harvested area, yield, production and value of hemp in the U.S.
The Domestic Hemp Production Program was established in the 2018 Farm Bill. The Hemp Acreage and Production Survey will provide needed data about the hemp industry to assist producers, regulatory agencies, state governments, processors and other key industry entities.
Producers may complete the survey online at agcounts.usda.gov, or they may complete and return the survey by mail using the return envelope provided. Learn more at nass.usda.gov/go/hemp.
Renew CDLs online
Kansas commercial driver’s license (CDL) holders can now renew their licenses by downloading the iKan app from the Apple App or Google Play store, or by visiting ikan.ks.gov.
To renew a CDL using iKan, the Kansas Department of Revenue’s official renewal app, customers must submit proof of a valid Department of Transportation medical card, Truckers Against Trafficking certificate of completion, and must not have a hazardous materials endorsement. By statute, other restrictions apply.
Kansans with CDLs can renew their licenses up to a year in advance of the expiration of the license.
