Original Note:
Helmand province has been fully controlled by the Taliban since 2021. The decline in opium production is a result of a change in Taliban policies, which now prohibit the cultivation of poppy. Prior to 2023, opium cultivation was permitted in Taliban-occupied Helmand. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-65787391
