Afghan Agriculture
Afghan agriculture is a vital part of the country's economy, employing a significant portion of the population. The main crops include wheat, corn, rice, and fruits like pomegranates and apricots. The diverse climate and geography allow for various agricultural practices, but challenges such as limited water resources and outdated farming techniques hinder productivity.
In addition to food crops, Afghanistan is known for producing opium poppy, which has significant implications for both the economy and security. Efforts to improve agricultural practices and promote alternative crops are ongoing, aiming to enhance food security and reduce reliance on illicit activities.
