Method of production of saffron, saffron producers
Saffron crocus bulbs and plant diseases planting in fields with a history of saffron cultivation is longer correct principles are not respected or more can be seen almost saffron producers .
His saffron corms often the location of the wound and sometimes attack healthy and well-fed and tunnels into the corm , the birth rate began to create holes in the mastic is .
These chambers will gradually expand and enter the corms rot fungi and accelerate the action is .
Almost perfect growing conditions in spring and autumn in the saffron producers fields of activity is due to the extreme heat of dry soil in summer and cold in winter because of cold weather, the population of ticks are reduced.
Prevention and control of ticks in the fields of construction is recommended :
1 – removing the bane of the earth shall be conducted as rigid .
2 – Bane of normal and dark spots are selected for planting .
3 – corms before planting must be disinfected with an appropriate fungicide and acaricide .
4 – planting depth of 15 to 20 cm depending on soil texture selection.
5 – Avoid irrigation during the summer .
6 – The groundsman saffron producers fields for replanting is avoided .
7 – light soil every two years during the height of summer it will add 1 to 2 cm depth of planting corms remain constant saffron producers .
8 – At the time of planting more luggage per unit area can be used to farm in a shorter time period to be economically harvested and overpopulation have scored fewer .
9 – composted cow manure and weed-free to be used as fertilizer from experience with sheep and poultry are not suitable for cultivation of saffron producers .
10 – The rest of the contaminated areas to prevent transmission of saffron producers corms .
3-11 – thrips mastic
the thrips are. The leaves are heavily infested with thrips will fall and early next year will directly reduce saffron . Since the population of this pest can be seen in saffron growing season seems to be no need for chemical control .
12 – Diseases of saffron
Saffron important diseases , including :
1-12 – Spring complexity and the stigmas
The stigma of this disease are similar to those found in String complexity . Stigma and in some cases cut off and fall to the complexity of the site . Precisely because of this condition is unknown , although the probability of such old corms , plant nutrition and plant physiology and plant conditions are viral and mycoplasma can be named saffron producers .
2-12 – corm rot.
Decay neck , lower abdomen and share your Bene Bene economic loss is observed at lower fields . The lower decay Mastic , Mastic smaller than normal, and also the plant itself is also shorter than normal , saffron producers due to the unbalanced nature of the irrigation and soil fertility , soil and other conditions may pathogens occur.
3-12 – solani disease
The disease is caused by a fungus . The fungus enters through Bene Bene outer sheath and cause root rot and Zrdshdn small white spots on the leaves and corms which the disease progresses, purple comes in and makes molds spoil inside and corms are removed . The disease is observed in most countries, Spain and France . Recommended to prevent the disease before planting the first one or two layers of mastic protective sheath removed for disinfection, corms for 1 to 3 minutes in a 5% solution of copper sulfate is placed . If the infection is too far from the corms should be removed and destroyed . In combating fungal diseases of crop rotation is recommended disinfectant to contaminated land, sulfur , carbon and disinfection of corms are used in the second innings .
4-12 – Saffron smut disease ( saffron producers )
Managing fungal disease called (fumago) that grows on the leaves and corms way to combat it is to burn infected leaves and corms saffron producers .
5-12 – yellowing disease ( or chlorosis of leaves )
Probably due to nutrient deficiency or iron deficiency lime leaves from the ground or the addition of fertilizers ( nitrogen , phosphate , potassium ) to the ground and spray fields with fertilizers containing iron sulfate saffron producers , iron or other relatively 1 to 2 per thousand for effective biological treatment Physio
