Ladakh Cultivates Saffron on Barren High-Altitude Plateau
An experiment to cultivate saffron is underway on Ladakh's high-altitude cold desert plateau, a region previously considered unsuitable for such growth. The initiative aims to introduce purple and saffron-colored flora to the barren landscape and boost the local farm economy. This large-scale saffron cultivation experiment has been launched in Ladakh.
