Barriers to saffron growth
Mashhad Barriers to Saffron Growth If not removed, we will witness the calm and silent death of Iran’s red gold in the near future, and this economic opportunity will gradually deteriorate.
Mehr News Agency Group of provinces: Saffron is one of the most important industries in the world. The industry has the capacity to bring a large amount of foreign currency to the non-oil sector. Considering the location of saffron season in Khorasan province, we decided to study the status of red gold in Khorasan Razavi.
It seems that having got the best saffron from Afghanistan in recent years, there are other things to come in the fields of saffron cultivation today. Ali Kazemi is one of the old saffroners in Torbat Heydarieh who is engaged in this profession in the family, he spoke at the foot of our speech and expressed his pain in the description you read.
“I want my children to be trained in the cultivation of this product and not only to save my experience, but unfortunately, it’s possible to educate even my children, who are the young and prospective generation of this field,” he said. Not provided
Kazemi said: Today, in order to shorten the hands of the dealers, the government sets a rate to buy from the farmer, but we can not wait a lot of times to buy our product. For many years, the government bought our saffron government but delayed the claims. And that would make us have to sell our product to intermediaries that are criticizing. We prefer to critique.
This veteran farmer pointed out that saffron is a product of dehydration: during these years, the drought was such that even the production of saffron was in trouble; in Torbat Heydariea, this issue is seen every year, but in places like Gonabad, the situation is much worse. .
Kazemi pointed out in the end: “We want the government to give us information in new ways, so that we can produce a better quality product.” We will take care of our facilities. After two years, we can easily pay for the facility and stand on our feet.
We raised some of these problems with the vice chairman of the National Council of Saffron, which we read in the following: Vice President of the Saffron National Council on the production of this product this year said: Because the saffron is still not fully collected, You can not now give a definitive opinion on its production.
Gholamreza Miri added: “The statistics we have from production can affect the future of prices, exports and all aspects of saffron, and we do not expect the amount of saffron production to be expected at this time, as it still remains until the tenth anniversary of the level of production, Saffron harvest continues in December.
Miri said: “When you have rivals next to you, and that rival can be found in both the production and the export sector, the increase in saffron cultivation in Afghanistan and its effect on the future of the saffron market in Iran,” said, It takes the market for it and equally reduces your share of the market.
The chairman of the Saffron Exporters Association, Kharazan Sarazani, explained that the Saffron National Council’s approach to preventing Iran’s share of the saffron market has been reduced, explained: “Unfortunately, the National Saffron Council can not do anything because these issues usually go back to the government. We can come up with solutions in this council, and executive work is not in our area of responsibility, and this is all about the government, which can manage the production debate with its support.
One hundred percent satisfied with the actions of the eleventh government
Miri on the three-year work plan for improving the state of saffron said: “We are satisfied with the past 100 percent of the 11th government’s actions, because in the past government, in addition to doing nothing, there were some barriers.” The new government has taken the barriers that the government had created and made valuable activities.
Some of the barriers in the Saffron section of the new government are as follows: First, the penalties imposed on the saffron that the government imposed before, the second national code of the farmer should be transferred to the property; the third should be in the customs for the export of saffron a commitment We sped out and many other things that were removed and resolved in the new administration. These cases are vital, and in the previous government, saffron was smuggled out of the country.
He added: “The question that has always been raised in this regard is the packaging and processing of saffron, which in the last three years, saffron processing in the area of the manufacturer’s duties, and not its exporter, and, of course, in terms of the variety of saffron export companies, we increased We see a great deal.
As for the most important approach to be pursued and pursued by the government, the private sector and producers about saffron, he explained: Since we are an exporter, we are asking producers to produce a good product that is competitive in the market.
The most important thing that the government expects in the matter of saffron is that in fact, given that this year, the year of the resistance economy, action should be taken, it should be operational and supported by the producer, exporter and distributor. Given the costs the government has, these costs should be borne by non-oil exports.
Since saffron has a high potential for importing currency to the country, it is appropriate for the government to increase its support for exporting saffron and to step in the labor market so that we can expand the markets to avoid growing the product on the hands of the farmer in the future. .
He added: “We export on five continents and in 47 countries. The United Arab Emirates is at the head of exports, after which Spain and China are in the second and third places, and the rest of the countries after the three countries are on the list of Iran’s export of saffron.
In the end, Miri said: “Despite the measures taken, the government should increase its support from producers and exporters, and bring stability to the market and high-quality production.” On the other hand, people are expected to produce saffron that has a standard sign and standard to avoid problems and, on the other hand, to support quality products.
With these interpretations, if the government and planners do not pay particular attention to Iran’s red gold, the fate of Iran’s caviar is awaiting this expensive plant, and barriers to saffron growth, if not lifted, will see the calm and silent death of the product in the near future. We will be
