"hardship for Afganinstans farmers"

Isn't it hardship when people with guns come to you and burn your fields?

Oh, woe is me, the government burned down my illegal drug manufacturing operation! Where is the justice?!

I wonder how this compares to the common western situation of livestock culls. Presumably there is compensation in some cases and not in others (poppy cultivation being illegal). I suppose it's at opposite ends of a scale.
