Location of Helmand Province within Afghanistan.

Helmand Province is an arid, mountainous region in southern Afghanistan. It is geographically the largest province of the country but has a relatively small population. Its capital is Lashkar Gah. It shares its southern border with Pakistan's Balochistan Province. Over two-thirds of Helmand Province is mountainous, but it is noted for its agriculture and the growth of prime opium poppy.
