This is a common misconception. They banned poppy cultivation for 12 month periods to increase the global price for opium paste. Even before the US invasion they had a "minister of drugs" who would openly talk about how growing poppy is halal because only westerners like it but growing weed for hash was haram because the Afghans like dat ganja.

This is the book the interview came out of. Very enlightening when you weigh it against the media idea that "the taliban banned opium production for Allah".

I mean it depends on how much you want to read about it. As for opium production, there are a series of books, any one of which would prove eye opening.

There's quite a bit of information backlogged on CSpan, which is where my information comes from on the subject.
