The rural cooperatives have exhausted saffron exporters

Gholamreza Miri, chairman of the Saffron Exporters Association, agreed to buy a saffron agreement last year by the Rural Cooperative Organization of the country, said: “This plan was a good plan and was supposed to be carried out with the aim of stabilizing and regulating the market of saffron and supporting farmers.” It was saffron and, besides supporting me, an exporter who would be able to market and export in the world with 70 tons of saffron storage.
He criticized the performance of the Rural Cooperative Organization in this area: but unfortunately, the rural cooperative was placed as an executive arm of the government against the exporters and placed them in black soil, and now, every exporter who sold her saffron 20 days ago should pay a million USD To buy saffron above the previous rate.
The chairman of the Saffron Exporters Association, pointing out that the rural cooperatives have bought and dumped most of farmers’ saffron, said: “Not only did not sell saffron, but it raised prices, to the extent that there was a shortage in the market and where to ask where Does the world stand against the exporter to land it?
But apparently saffron is offered through the stock market to regulate the market, which Miri replied: “Saffron pounds 4 million and 500 thousand tomans on the stock 6 million and 50 thousand tomans, and they tell me the exporter buy from Saffron this place and in exchange for It will provide a bank collateral if the exporter has already easily bought the required saffron at a price lower than the farmers.
He said: “It was better for the Ministry of Agriculture to support the cultivation of saffron, a guaranteed price method, to say if I wanted to buy a farmer’s product at a low price, I would buy saffron at that price.”
Due to the problems that saffroners have been selling at a low price over the past few years, the agreement to buy saffron was implemented by the Rural Cooperative Organization, but in practice there were some problems.
One of the reasons for the change of Ali Avesh Hashemi, former CEO of the Rural Cooperative Organization, has been disagreement over how to buy a saffron agreement with Mr. Minister.
