Authorities in Indonesia burned a marijuana plantation on Aug. 16, 2023, after it was discovered by a drone. The plantation had an estimated 21,100 cannabis plants ready for harvest.
More than 150 officers from the police, customs and BNN were deployed to uproot the 20 tons of marijuana for burning Wednesday, Sugiri said.
"This is a form of the government’s firmness against illegal drugs and their circulation," Sugiri said. The burning was the fifth this year, he said. In March, authorities burned 43 hectares (106 acres) with an estimated 190,000 marijuana plants.
