I would suggest that the "farmers" who are reluctant to switch to growing grapes watch a few episodes of the "old" HBO series "Oz". Scared Straight works!
You don't quite understand the drug trade here. In my post, I stated that the DA will not prosecute cases involving less than 99 pounds. The growers are not afraid of the cops. Yes, there are seizures for the production of marijuanna
for sale, but you don't think these folks get hard time do you?

The wife of our public defender was caught for transporting a helluva lot of pot processed for retail sale. All she got was probation.

Many of the growers have better weapons, night vision and commo than the local LEO's. They pay police insiders for intelligence (and they pay well). They hire former soldiers to keep watch on their grow sites and for protection (and they pay well).
