Kashmiri farmers collect saffron from their fields at Pampore on the outskirts of Srinagar, 01, November 2009, as the season of cultivation of the prized crop begans in the valley. Many historians believe that it was in this region, that the cultivation of the purple Crocus sativus saffron flower first began, although it is impossible to be sure where it's origins lie. The Kashmiri government is trying to aid saffron farmers in increasing their crop, which can produce up to 12.5 tons (12,500 kg) or as little as 3.5 - 5 tons per annum, based on low or late rainfall. War, combined with the rising threat of terrorism, in the Kashmir region is another factor which may hamper growth.
