Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON, Jun 27 2006 (IPS) – Global opium production, particularly in Southeast Asia, fell during 2005, while cocaine production was broadly unchanged compared to 2004, according to the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), which released its 2006 World Drug Report here Monday.

Her conclusions were based on a study she coordinated on the consumption of pasta base among middle-income users in Argentina, presented late last mo…
