Tyvan regional authorities reported that 2,290.9 hectares of wild cannabis was destroyed in the Republic of Tyva during 2026, equal to 99.4% of the plan.[1] The work was part of the Republic of Tyva’s anti-alcohol and anti-drug state programme, which runs from the destruction of drug-plants to social rehabilitation.[1]
The cannabis was destroyed by chemical treatment, mechanical and manual mowing and weeding.[1] Crops were sown on 230 hectares of the treated land.[1] The Tyvan government spent 2.93 million roubles from the regional budget on destroying wild cannabis, including herbicides and container disposal.[1]
