I'd recommend keeping the crop going, paying the current rate for it and burning it. Alongside that have say a ten year period of improving farming skills for foodstuffs, all of which the coalition buys at good prices. Since the troops are likely to be targeted if they eat the stuff, make it plain that it's not going to be eaten by the troops and ship it to Pakistan and sell it at the wholesale price to their food distributors, same with India.
What's missing in Afghanistan are the normal trade connections.
