Abstrakt
Saffron management involves a systematic approach to nutrient management.
Controlling the amount, form, combinations and timing of nutrients delivered to plants is a prerequisite for getting optimum yield and quality potential of saffron. Therefore, nutrient use
efficiency and integrated nutrient management is a crucial tool for balanced fertilization and
sustainable crop production. The impact and the need of organic and inorganic fertilization for
saffron growth are discussed along with the possibilities of increasing qualitative and quantitative
parameters by the integration of multiple fertilizers. The goal of this review is to give an overview
of saffron nutrition management in order to maximize saffron growth and yield.
