yes we know this is all part of their strategy to sell more of their reports – but it’s an interesting set of data which sets one to thinking where will the DEA apply its energies if the Californian state legislature apply pressure on the DEA to stand back if and when legalization in the states goes through
Federal cannabis eradication efforts are focused on California, where more cannabis plants are destroyed each year than in all other states combined. Between 2009 and 2015, two-thirds (64%) of the cannabis plants eradicated were in California, totaling more than 29 million plants over the seven years. The pending vote to legalize adult cannabis use could significantly reduce federal eradication expenditures in the state, as legalization will not only make it easier to identify illicit producers, but also the demand for illicit cannabis will fall as consumers transition to the legal market. |
