《Golden crescent shaped area where poppy blossoms sway》

Even if we can't see it from the ground,snow on the mountain becomes groundwater,and it flows.They have made good use of the groundwater for the カレーズ as watercourses.😃

They searched for the source of the water at the foot of the mountain,and they continued to dig underground passages for several years.They guided the passages to their arable lands 耕地.☀

The カレーズ flows underground,so it has little vaporization.They grew wheat mainly.They kneaded and baked the wheat and made naan.It was their staple food.🍞

However,part of the arable lands changed into fields of poppy in the Taliban Government.The golden crescent shaped area being included Afghanistan,Pakistan,and Iran had been the greatest zone for growing poppy until 2000 when prohibition of the poppy was announced.🎀

It is said that Afghan heroines account fnr about 80% in Europe.💀
