1.1 本指南可供大麻农民、大麻种子加工公司和大麻农业推广代理使用，以帮助防止种子在储存过程中可能变质。 1.2 这适用于用于人类消费的大麻种子的大面积生产。 1.3 本指南不适用于室内种植的大麻植物，也不适用于在室外生产条件下收获大麻种子以外的其他用途。 1.4 单位- 以英寸-磅单位表示的值应视为标准值。括号中给出的值是对SI单位的数学转换，仅供参考，不被视为标准值。 1.5 本标准并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.6 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《国际标准、指南和建议制定原则决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 4.1 如果避免了损坏或在过程中较早发现了损坏的可能性，则产品损耗将减少。高水分会导致有利于微生物生长、霉菌和导致酸败的条件。 4.2 水分含量测试有助于在种子损坏无法纠正之前主动管理种子损坏，或提供信息将种子重新定向到其他可行的副产品流。

1.1 This guide can be used by hemp farmers, hemp seed processing companies, and hemp agricultural extension agents to help manage against potential seed spoilage during storage. 1.2 This applies to broadacre production of hemp seed intended for human consumption. 1.3 This guide does not apply to hemp plants grown indoors or for purposes other than for harvesting of hemp seed intended for food within outdoor production conditions. 1.4 Units— The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 Product wastage will be reduced if spoilage is avoided or the potential for spoilage is identified earlier in the process. High moisture can result in conditions favorable to microbial growth, mold, and conditions leading to rancidity. 4.2 Testing for moisture content can assist in proactively managing damage to seed before it is not rectifiable or provide information to retarget seed to other feasible by-product streams.
