** FOR STORY SLUGGED AFGANISTAN-OPIO ** FILE - In this July 16, 2009 file photo, an illegal crop of poppies stands out from a newly-harvested crop of wheat in the Badakhshan province of Afghanistan. The poppies, already showing marks from one harvest of opium were hidden by farmers in the once tall stands of wheat. Two years ago, opium _ the raw ingredient used to make heroine _ was grown on nearly half a million acres in Afghanistan, the largest illegal narcotics crop ever produced by a modern nation. A government crackdown on poppy cultivation has spelled economic disaster for many communities throughout the country. (AP Photo/Julie Jacobson, File) Syracuse
