---

A Brazilian farmer and his wife have been arrested for growing 8,000
marijuana plants on government land.

The couple were given the land to help them make a living as part of a
Government project to give poor, landless families an income.

Folha de SP newspaper reports that federal police at Para have seized
back the land which will be given to another family.

The unnamed couple say they have been growing the plants for more than
two years and selling their harvest for £50 per kilo.

Officers took away the drug to be incinerated.
