The cotton-processing factory commonly known "Tasadi Bost Helmand" is the only industrial unit of its type in the troubled Helmand and the neighboring Kandahar, Zabul and Uruzgan provinces that has been badly damaged and shut down due to the prolonged war. The government has rebuilt the factory recently to promote cotton cultivation in the militancy-battered province and provide job opportunities for the war-weary people.
