I know how. You stop trying to destroy the poppy fields. You make friends with the farmers and therefore stop giving the Taliban a desriable face as the only party to support their only economic option.
As long as you let the Taliban be the good guys to these farmers we'll be the bad guys. Its like prohibition in the US. It didn't work and it only made the mafia richer than they could ever have dreamed.
