Marijuana Plantation

SOME 30,000 BUSHES of fully-grown marijuana were discovered by operatives of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) in the remote barangay of Loccong in Tinglayan, Kalinga. Together with local police, they successfully carried out a two-day marijuana eradication-and-burning initiative on site, from  June 24 to 25, 2025. This covered some 3,000 square meters of land. This proactive effort led to the destruction of marijuana plants and dried leaves estimated to be worth around ₱9,600,000. Approximately 30 kilograms of dried marijuana leaves and stalks were also discovered. No person or cultivator was reported arrested during the operation.
