According to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), "Any persons wishing to grow or process industrial hemp in Minnesota must obtain a Hemp Program license. The deadline to apply for a 2020 license is March 31".

As the application process to obtain a license is a detailed one, including fingerprinting and a background check, do not wait until the last couple of days to apply.
