Production of the most precious red gold of Iran in the region of Azerbaijan

The product of saffron is red gold, which has become famous in Khorasan, but according to some experts, the best and most expensive type of this product can be found outside the Khorasan region and in the region of Azerbaijan.

Throughout history, Iran has always held the record for saffron production in the world, and the country’s famous name is still known as the largest producer and exporter of saffron in the world.

East Azerbaijan, as one of the provinces of the agricultural hub of the country, with cold weather and unique growing conditions, has been producing saffron for the past few years and it can be boldly said that it produces the most delicious and high quality saffron in the country. .

In an interview with farmers in Marand city, which has the largest share in the production of saffron in the province, we concluded that the high quality of saffron in this region has led to an increase in price compared to its Khorasan counterpart and the customer of Bonab Marand saffron in the country has decreased as much Has found.

The high value of the product, in the absence of a customer and the support of a special machine, does not benefit the farmer and the farmer is eventually forced to sell at a lower price. According to farmers and officials of Jihad Keshavarzi, the province’s saffron product is often purchased in bulk by Khorasan farmers and after mixing with Khorasan saffron, they increase the quality of their product.
