How can I buy cocaine online in Bogota

Download this report in PDF format. The market in Colombia for coca, the plant whose leaves can be used to produce cocaine, is in a state of historic collapse, bringing with it an acute humanitarian crisis in already impoverished rural territories. The unusually sharp and prolonged drop in coca prices has several causes. WOLA has identified 12 possible explanations, some more compelling than others. Regardless of the reason, the crisis is sure to be temporary as world cocaine demand remains robust. The Colombian government, and partner and donor governments including the United States, should take maximum advantage of this window of opportunity before it closes. The humanitarian crisis offers a chance for Colombia to fill vacuums of civilian government presence in territories where insecurity, armed groups, and now hunger are all too common.

Starting in the first half of , buyers of coca leaves and coca paste the product of early stages of processing coca leaves into cocaine stopped coming to the Catatumbo region of northeastern Colombia, near the Venezuelan border. Throughout the year, and into , the coca market continued collapsing all around the country. More than , households in Colombia population 52 million make a living by cultivating coca, which as of was planted in , hectares , acres of territory, according to the UN Office on Drugs and Crime UNODC. Adding people who make a living less directly from the crop—pickers, sellers of farm supplies, and others—increases the estimated total to , households. Under those circumstances growing coca is a survival strategy, as the illegal crop earns an above-average price paid in cash and is easier to transport in zones with few roads and poor access to markets. The coca price crash means that these families are hurting badly. Their income slashed, they are petitioning mayors, governors, and the central government for emergency assistance as they go literally hungry. Farmers are burying their coca paste, or trading it for food. Such dramatic market crashes are rare for a commodity whose illegality, and resulting scarcity, usually prop up prices. Something similar happened in , after the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia FARC guerrilla group demobilized: reports from some regions, like Catatumbo, pointed to coca growers going hungry and burying their product as the cocaine market struggled to adjust—which it did in a matter of months. The current coca-price crisis is more prolonged, and it has no single cause. Though WOLA staff have not performed field research in coca-growing zones during the current crisis, our consultation with partners and review of local media and NGO reports have identified 12 potential reasons why prices fell. These possible causes have to do with overproduction, disruptions in relations between buyers and sellers, changed demand patterns, peace and conflict dynamics, and recent policy changes. Most are hypotheses, and some have only slim evidence presented to sustain them. Some are more compelling than others, and most are more applicable to specific region s, rather than nationwide. Overproduction—an increase in supply outpacing any increase in demand—is the most frequently cited cause for the price drop. The U. In , Colombia stopped eradicating coca by spraying herbicides from aircraft, but has taken a long time to replace fumigation with efforts to govern coca-growing zones and help farmers transition to other crops. Suddenly, there was no actor with the ability to set and stabilize prices. With supplies glutted by overproduction, this hypothesis contends, the bubble burst and prices fell to earth. The coca boom came to a sudden end, unevenly across regions, in Coca overproduction is not just a Colombian phenomenon. And coca fields and labs keep turning up in Venezuela , Ecuador , Honduras , Guatemala , and Mexico , contributing to robust supplies that could continue depressing prices. Several often-cited reasons for the coca price drop have to do with shifts in who is buying, and who is facilitating relationships between buyers and sellers. Some of these officers were suspected of involvement in corruption or human rights abuses. Removing corrupt top brass may have affected the cocaine supply chain. Other indicators, however, challenge this hypothesis. If Petro replaced officers who were permissive with the drug trade with more law-abiding colleagues, one would expect cocaine seizures and arrests of top drug traffickers to have increased since August That has not happened: neither measure has increased. Catatumbo, Colombia. These groups confront each other frequently, increasing uncertainty in coca markets. Supplies of inputs like fertilizer were also disrupted by the pandemic and the February Russian invasion of Ukraine which further drove up the price paid for inputs. The cost of producing coca paste increased beyond its selling price. These enclaves do away with the need to introduce precursor chemicals, and to buy leaves and paste, from farmers in more remote areas. Outside the enclaves, farmers are more likely to be facing reduced demand and falling prices. The price of an ounce of gold is about two-thirds higher today than it was in the mids. As happened the last time that precious-metals prices hit a peak, in the early s, criminal groups are turning to illegal mining, which does great damage in environmentally fragile zones but tends to run less risk of interdiction by authorities. Reports from disputed territories around Colombia point to competing armed and criminal groups prohibiting coca and coca-paste purchases in order to deny income to rivals. That leaves coca growers with no buyers. Reports from Cauca and Catatumbo point to the National Liberation Army ELN guerrilla group beginning to discourage coca cultivation and cocaine production. The request was to discourage both coca trade and coca cultivation in the regions where they operate, as a show of good will. If that truly happened, groups involved in negotiations may be complying, at least partially, in some regions. That presents a golden, fleeting opportunity for the state to enter these zones and establish a new relationship with abandoned populations. The Petro government, in cooperation with international partners, must rise quickly to the occasion and help farmers integrate into the legal economy. In the short term, that means delivering humanitarian aid to populations facing a food security emergency. That can open the door to longer-term efforts to establish and consolidate a civilian state presence in these ungoverned areas, to end their historic abandonment. Civilian state presence would mean greater access to education and health care. It would mean massive titling of land, a long standing demand. It would mean technical assistance and access to credit. It would mean introducing the judicial system to settle disputes and to bring accountability for corruption and human rights violations. And it would mean protecting local leaders who seek to have a say in how their communities are governed. Cauca, Colombia. Some have relied too heavily on the military and neglected the civilian part of the government. Some were too small and underfunded. Most started in one presidential administration, only to shut down in the next. Bringing the state into many remote regions at once is a complicated and ambitious endeavor. The present crisis, however, makes it easier. Though they distrust the government after years of neglect and broken promises, populations will be more welcoming now at a time of urgent need. State-building and humanitarian assistance efforts can also be linked to ongoing negotiations with armed groups: if these groups truly intend to demobilize, the future peace of their regions of influence demands that they cease to be obstacles. Nor do they have to. And even where prices are not recovering, some residents of ungoverned zones are turning to illegal mining, joining armed groups, or displacing elsewhere. The window of opportunity is closing. In the medium and long term, the Petro government is about to roll out a long-awaited new drug policy. This is likely to include a reinvigorated crop-substitution aid program along the lines of what the peace accord foresaw, but ended up with broken promises of assistance to tens of thousands of families who eradicated their coca. So far, the Petro government has not moved fast. Nor is it clear what the strategy for executing this eventual policy will look like. The government will have to move at a quicker tempo.
