CARMEL, Ind. — Agrozen Life Sciences recently launched Agrozen Labs, a U.S. Department of Agriculture-certified analytical hemp testing laboratory.
The labs have Schedule I cannabis testing certification from the DEA. They are an approved hemp testing laboratory through the USDA’s Domestic Hemp Production Program.
In conjunction with the USDA and Drug Enforcement Administration approvals, Agrozen Labs is the first hemp cooperative analytical testing laboratory approved through the seed section of the Office of Indiana State Chemist at Purdue University.
“The Agrozen Labs team is honored to be the first hemp testing laboratory certified in the State of Indiana by USDA, as well as the first state-certified lab to be working in the hemp industry,” said Brian Schroeder, co-founder and CEO for Agrozen Life Sciences.
“Our hemp testing process and analytical equipment are managed by a pharmaceutical scientist with more than three decades of experience, and our lab can now produce consistent and reliable results for farmers, extractors, formulators and finished goods suppliers.”
Around 280 growers are registered to farm more than 8,900 acres in Indiana this year.
Farmers are required to have hemp crops tested before harvest. Agrozen is one of about 50 such certified testing labs in the country.
