Summary
- Over 100 cannabis plants discovered dumped in bin bags.
- The waste was found on farmland owned by a Christmas tree farm.
- Police are investigating the illegal dumping of the cannabis remnants.
A farmer near Swansea discovered a significant amount of cannabis waste dumped on his land, expressing shock and disappointment. Rob Morgan, who runs Gower Fresh Christmas Trees Farm, found approximately 80 bin bags containing over 100 cannabis plants. The waste appeared to have been "ejected from a vehicle pretty hastily" onto his property.
Morgan described the discovery as "disheartening" and a frustration for his staff who must deal with the cleanup. South Wales Police were alerted and confirmed the waste contained "remnants from a cannabis factory." An investigation is currently underway to identify those responsible for the illegal fly-tipping, which has become a growing concern in Wales.
