I wonder... where will they end up storing 29 tons of cocaine? 🤔

In two 12 ton containers.

25 tonnes will take an entire warehouse to store.

Fifteen tons of cocaine would be difficult to dispose of.

Jayzus, imagine the square footage of coca plants it would take to get that yield.

I'd be willing to bet that with something that size it's at least in part cut with something else, but regardless: that's a lotta plant matter.

Surely they wouldn't notice a few kg missing...

I think it would be wise for them to open state distribution outlets. Have the cops seize drugs, then resell it at a discount. It would help pay for the cost of policing and increase the GDP!
