Cannabis in Cuba
History
Cannabis was introduced to Cuba as a textile crop in 1793, but planters on the island found sugar to be a more lucrative crop.[1]
In 1949, prior to the Cuban Revolution, a journal noted that most of the cannabis found in Cuba was imported from Mexico, but it was increasingly grown on the island, and was receiving attention in medical, juridical, and police publications.[2]
