LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Another shipment of imported seeds is bolstering Kentucky’s experimental hemp crop, this time with none of the drama that surrounded an earlier shipment that set off a legal fight between the state’s Agriculture Department and the federal government.

Nearly 950 pounds of Canadian hemp seeds cleared customs recently without a hitch, and the seeds were planted last week to give researchers and farmers more test plots, state Agriculture Department officials said Monday.
