Афганистан отвечает за 74 процента мирового производства опиума, в 2007 году этот показатель составлял 92 процента, United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime – World Drug Report 2011 (Vienna, 2011), р. 20. Как ни странно, как показывают местные цены на опий, чем более эффективна кампания по сокращению производства опиума, тем выше цены и, следовательно, более прибыльным становится выращивание и торговля.
