Sections 1 to 10 of that Act amended, repealed and reenacted, or created statutes relating to the industrial hemp research program found in the statutory range of KRS 260.850 to 260.869. Sections 11 and 12 amended or created statutes in other KRS chapters, and Section 13 repealed some statutes within KRS 260.850 to 260.869.
