Afghanistan: Kunduz agro revenue sharply spikes in last quarter

KABUL, 06 December 2021, (TON):  Tens of millions of afghanis have been embezzled in the past in revenue of the Kunduz Agriculture Department.

The fund misappropriation becomes obvious, considering the revenue collected over the past three months and this last fiscal year.

Since mid-August, when the Taliban came to power, the authorities have collected over 36 million Afghanis in revenue from the Agriculture Department.

If the trend continues, an estimated 132 million Afghanis will be collected till the end of the current year.

During the last fiscal year, about 12 million afghanis were collected in agro revenue, indicating a difference of over 33 million afs with the revenue expected this year.

Findings of Afghan media sources show the provincial agricultural revenue stood at 11,896,451 afs in 2017, 10,854,363 afs in 2018 and 29,731,180 afs in 2019.
