Dutch marijuana fields cannot hide from canna chopper

The Netherlands (and their capital city of Amsterdamn) have garnished a well known reputation for their loose laws on the cannabis plant and marijuana, but most people don’t realize that the drug is NOT completely legal in the nation. According to some reports, only as much as 10% of the Marijuana grown in the nation is sold and grown legally.
In an effort to crack down on illegal marijuana growing, Dutch authorities developed the “Canna Chopper.” The unmanned helicopter craft is equipped with odor sensors that can “smell marijuana” and also uses video detection technology. In it’s first trial run in the field, it was successfull in discovering a marijuana farm that lead to the arrest of seven individuals.
While technology like this is unfortunate for the outdoor Marijuana growers of the world, it is unlikely that it will affect all of the many indoor grow operations and legal coffee shop outlets that we have all grown to know and love.
