Cannabis is the most widely consumed illicit drug globally. Security officials in Morocco and other Maghreb countries fear militants linked to al Qaeda could join hands with drug traffickers to carry out more violence in North Africa. “The target is to bring the cannabis cultivation land to 50000 hectares in 2009 from 60000 hectares this year” the ministry said in a rare press release on the country’s multi-billion dollar cannabis harvest. The land where cannabis is grown shrank by 55 percent this year to 60000 hectares from 134000 hectares in 2003 the ministry said adding that “as a result of this shrinking acreage the resin cannabis production was cut by 65 percent”.
