Résumé :
The results of the census show that in 31 December 2012, Colombia had 48,000 hectares under coca cultivation, distributed in 23 out of the 32 departments of the country. This represents a strong reduction of the area under cultivation (-25%) with respect to the 64,000 hectares detected in 2011. Only 3 departments: Norte de Santander, Caquetá and Chocó, showed an increase in the area under coca cultivation and 3 remained stable; the other departments show a trend to reduction.
In 2012, the Colombian Government manually eradicated 34,486 hectares; this level of eradication is 65,245 hectares lower than the record reached in 2008 (95,731 ha). Aerial spraying of coca fields remained in similar levels to those of 2011 and went from 103,302 hectares to 100,549 in 2012. The geographical addition of the data available on presence of coca cultivation shows that 135,000 ha were affected by coca at some point during 2012; at the end of the year, 48,000 ha were remaining. Although the census with cut-off date 31 December 2012 provides a figure that is historically low, the size of the phenomenon in Colombia is still great and requires efforts not only around reduction of the area cultivated with coca but also around improving social, economic and environmental conditions in the affected territories.
