Cannabis in Jamaica

A ganja farm in Westmoreland Parish, Jamaica

Cannabis in Jamaica is illegal, but possession of small amounts was reduced to a petty offence in 2015. Cannabis is locally known as ganja, and internationally cannabis consumption plays a prominent role in the nation's public image, being tied to cultural touchstones such as Rastafari and reggae music.[1] Ganja tourists have been welcomed in the 21st century.
