DRUG SUPPLY
Countries with probable sizeable cannabis cultivation and/or
production
In addition to the scarce direct estimates of areas under
cannabis cultivation, several countries report on a
number of indirect indicators of cultivation and/or production
of cannabis, including “hectares of cannabis
eradicated”, “number of cannabis plants eradicated”,
“number of cannabis sites eradicated”, “number of cannabis
plants seized” and “origin of cannabis seized”.
Analysis of both direct and indirect indicators for the
period 2010–2018 points to a number of countries that
are likely to have significant cannabis cultivation in
comparison to other countries in their same region or
subregion.
