UK revealed to be world's biggest producer of medical cannabis

alexa · Oct 2, 2018

Well who would have thought.

The UK is the world's largest producer and exporter of legal cannabis for medical and scientific use, according to a new report from a UN body.

Findings by the UN's International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) state the UK produced a whopping 95 tonnes of legal cannabis in 2016.

It is more than double the 2015 total of 42 tonnes and the UK's production now accounts for 44.9 per cent of the world total.

The report puts Canada in second place with 80.7 tonnes produced.

Some 2.1 tonnes was exported from the UK, making it responsible for 67.7 per cent of the world total, followed by the Netherlands (16.4 per cent).

But campaigners have criticised the UK government saying they "consistently refused to allow medical cannabis in the UK on the basis that it has 'no therapeutic value'".
