Excerpt:
The Mexican authorities said the plants would have yielded marijuana with a street value of about $160m (£99m)
Soldiers were patrolling the area, some 300km (190 miles) south of the US border, when they found the plantation.
The field near the town of San Quintin, measuring 1.2sq km (300 acres), was surrounded by a hedge of cacti. It is the largest marijuana plantation ever found in Mexico, officials say.
They say it would have yielded a harvest worth about $160m (£99m).
