Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Ce rapport annuel retrace les grandes tendances observées en 2001 en Afghanistan concernant la culture de l'Opium après l'interdiction de cette activité par les Talibans. De manière générale, on observe un recul extraordinaire du phénomène dans les zones effectivement controlées par les Talibans, à savoir : une diminution de 91% de la surface cultivée par rapport à l'estimation de l'année précédente et une baisse de 94% par rapport à la production de l'année 2000.
ENGLISH :
Cultivation: An estimated 7,606 hectares (Ha) of opium poppy was cultivated in Afghanistan during the 2001 season. This represents a reduction in total poppy area of 91% compared to last year's estimate of 82,172 Ha. Helmand Province, the highest cultivating province last year with 42,853 Ha, recorded no poppy cultivation in the 2001 season. Nangarhar, the second highest cultivating province last year with 19,747 Ha is reported to have 218 Ha this year. Almost all major former poppy growing provinces had no poppy or relatively small areas under cultivation this year. The reductions are clearly the result of the implementation of the opium poppy ban. In Badakhshan, there has been an increase from 2,458 Ha to 6,342 Ha compared to last year. In Samangan, there has been an increase from 54 Ha to 614 Ha compared to last year.' This year, more villages were surveyed in Badakhshan to spot the possible displacement of poppy cultivation, and to implement the GPS Survey that requires that every single village in five designated districts be visited. Similarly, Samangan was surveyed for the first time this year upon information on poppy cultivation received from WFP. Production: Based on the above-mentioned figures for yield, an estimated 185 metric tonnes (MT) of raw opium was produced in Afghanistan in 2001. This would suggest a large reduction in opium production of 94% from the 2000 total of 3,276 MT and a reduction of 96% from the record high of 4,581 MT reported by the 1999 survey. Preliminary data for 2001 would indicate that the approximately 3,100 MT of reduction in opium production this year in Afghanistan compared to last year has not been offset by increases in other areas or countries. Prices and Income: Prices for fresh and dry opium have increased greatly over the past year. The average farm-gate price for fresh opium, as reported by the farmers in different provinces, is US$ 301/Kg, a 10-fold increase from last year's average price of US$ 30/Kg. The potential gross income from the sale of fresh opium by farmers is around US$56 millions, which is approximates 38% less than last years estimate of around US$ 91 millions.
