Mexico targets heroine poppy plantations
Drug gangs in Mexico are moving deeper into rural areas to expand the production of heroin producing poppy crops.

Recent estimates suggest Mexico is the second largest opium producer in the world, behind Afghanistan.
An American report says opium production has grown six-fold in four years.
