Gasoline is one of the main ingredients for processing cocaine in Colombia. But as fuel prices increase, some locals are stealing crude oil to make bootleg gasoline known as pategrillo. Now, police are trying to find and destroy the illegal labs in an effort to curb the country's decades-long cocaine problem.

“If they legalized it(coca farming) then it wouldn’t be a business anymore, because they(the government) would set the price.” This man just summed up the largest cause for the scale of corruption, and illicit activities in South American countries.

I worked with quite a few Colombian guys in kitchens and they said issue is that there's no road infrastructure for farmers. A lot of the time for poorer farmers their plot is so far out on a dirt road they need to manually bring crops back. The cartels don't need that - they offer more money, protection (not really) and easier logistics - you have a field that saves you so much money getting it to distribution as well as getting above average for wholesale price there's really no choice.

@alexyochum5648 Год назад

The man in the end literally said if coca farming was legalized it would no longer be a business because they(the government) would set the price. Do people not get that these governments don’t support much Capitalism at all. There is no incentive to create a business when the government tells you how much profit you even get to make.

I got a chance to traverse a lot of the Andes mountains as well as the area throughout the Caribbean Sea coastal region.

Just so you know this "war" is total BS. In Columbia, there are 605,000 acres planted with cocoa. 220,000 farmers make their living from cocoa earning at most $2,000.00 per year. If the US gov't paid each farmer $2,000.00 per year to Not grow cocoa the bill would be $440 million per year. A pittance compared to what we spend trying to "defeat" it.

Hi guys, to the ones who don't know. The people that get affected the most are the farmers because they are in the lowest part of the production chain. Also if they don't trade the coca leaves (with cartels and illegal armed groups), they can get killed and compromise their family subsistence. To put things in context: Colombia signed a peace process deal with FARC (2016), the oldest guerrilla in the region. A process that included the subsistence of the people in the corners of the country (the ones who live by growing coca). But in the process president Ivan Duque (2018-2022), didn't implement the deal due to ideological conflicts and lack of political will; arguing that the only way to stop this was by fumigating the coca fields (compromising peoples lifes and the ecosystems around them). The new president is trying to do something about it, but the issue still going on.

It may be time to look for legitimate and legal alternative uses for coca plants. The reason is that if there is a lot of other uses for the plant beyond cocaine, then the farmers will take their crops into legitimate areas. Which will actually do alot more damage to drug cartels than current systems being used now. It won't be perfect by any means, but its hard to make cocaine if the main ingredient is much harder to purchase, because no one wants to sell it to you.

@squintylizard 9 месяцев назад

Coca-Cola produces as much as $2BN of pure COCAINE every year in a New Jersey factory. The New Jersey plant receives up to 500 metric tons of coca leaves every year. The New Jersey factory 'decocainizing' the leaves for syrup (the flavoring for Coca-Cola). Then the narcotic is sold on to pharma in the United States. No other company in the US is allowed to import coca and make cocaine..
