Effect of Planting Methods and Corm Density in Saffron (Crocus Sativus L.) Yield

Study on Yield and Corm Regeneration of Saffron through Different Planting Geometry Patterns

“…These results are in line with the earlier reports of Behnia and Mokhtari (2009) who reported that maximum density of saffron corms produced the highest number of corms per row.…”

Enhancing saffron (Crocus sativus) productivity by land configuration and corm intensity manipulation under Kashmir condition

“…It seems that increasing corms intensity and reducing corms distances between and within rows, cause enhancement in yield (Andabjadid et al 2015). Behnia (2008) and concluded that yield was increased significantly by increasing plant intensity. Total saffron yield ranged from minimum 9.76 kg/ ha in flat bed to maximum 22.38 kg/ha in raised bed among land configurations, whereas it was ranged from 10.76 kg/ ha in 5 lakh/ha corm intensity to 15.98 kg/ha in 15 lakh/ ha corm intensity amongst corm intensities.…”
