Planting saffron without water and soil this time in Yazd
Saffron, which has high properties and is known as red gold, has created new hope in the hearts of Yazd farmers who have been suffering from drought for a long time.
Yazdi farmers, who had suffered heavy losses during the continuous drought, turned to low-water crops to make up for their losses.
Saffron is one of the most expensive spices in the world and Khorasan provinces are its leaders. This plant was first cultivated in Bahabad province, and then in Bafgh, Abarko, Mehriz and Yazd.
Yazd saffron is one of the highest quality saffron due to climatic conditions and is in the seventh place in the country.
The amount of saffron harvest increases every year and according to the agricultural jihad, about fifty hectares are added to the cultivated area of this crop every year.
Planting saffron without soil and water: In this way, there is no need for agricultural land, facilities and equipment.
According to one of the people who did this type of cultivation, I planted a kilogram of onion in a space of 100 meters.
Hamedi Nasab, a retired cultural figure who started this production, added: Those who are interested in this type of saffron cultivation can participate in courses held by the agricultural, technical and professional jihad.
This method can bring Yazd to a good position in the field of saffron production in the future and improve the rank of this city.
