Acknowledgment: Congratulations on being one of the pioneer innovators who have obtained the IFIA Innovation Standard certificate (IIS).
Following your inquiry for an IIS certification, the jury board evaluated your application according to the criteria. And after the assessment and examinations, your innovation was granted with IFIA Innovation Standard Grade B.
IFIA hopes that by having this certification, you will take an essential step in the commercialization of your innovation. Also, by entering international markets, you can contribute to the realization of the global slogan: Generating wealth through innovative knowledge.
The Summary of Innovation:
Saffron, a precious spice, requires specific conditions for its growth and produces its valuable harvest only once a year in specific regions and months. However, adverse conditions can have detrimental effects on the aroma, flavor, and color of saffron. Additionally, pests and diseases pose significant concerns for farmers cultivating this delicate plant.
By simulating all the essential elements of the saffron’s growth cycle within a controlled environment, the seasons of harvesting and reproduction can be shifted inside a specialized facility. This remarkable innovation eliminates the need for transferring the saffron plants to the ground, offering a revolutionary solution.
The purpose of the innovation is to optimize and enhance the cultivation of saffron plants. By precisely controlling the key environmental factors of light, moisture, and temperature, the invention aims to create an artificial environment that mimics the ideal growing conditions for saffron.
This simulated environment allows for increased harvest frequency, enabling farmers to produce higher yields of saffron and meet the growing demand for this valuable spice.
Based on the provided title, the innovation would focus on the method or system for simulating saffron cultivation with light, moisture, and temperature to enhance harvest frequency. This means that the patent would cover the unique approach, techniques, or technology used to create and control the artificial environment that replicates the optimal growing conditions for saffron plants. It could include aspects such as specific equipment, sensors, algorithms, or any other innovative components that enable the simulation of light, moisture, and temperature for saffron cultivation.
With this cutting-edge technology, farmers can recreate the optimal conditions for saffron growth, regardless of geographic limitations or unpredictable weather patterns. By maintaining precise control over temperature, humidity, and light, the saffron plants can thrive and flourish, preserving their unparalleled aroma, flavor, and color.
Moreover, this controlled indoor environment offers protection against pests and diseases that often plague saffron crops in traditional farming methods. By providing a shielded and carefully monitored space, the risk of infestations and infections can be greatly reduced, ensuring the quality and quantity of the saffron yield.
In conclusion, this extraordinary invention revolutionized saffron cultivation. It enables the shifting of the harvesting season and reproduction cycle without the need for transferring plants to the ground. By simulating the necessary elements in an indoor facility, farmers can safeguard the delicate saffron plants, overcome geographical limitations, and produce premium-quality saffron all year round.
Why is this innovation eligible to receive the IIS certification?
Saffron is one the most expensive and delicate spices in the world and this innovation has the chance to enhance its growth condition. This innovation has the potential to remove the obstacles we have for growing saffron or even grow it in different weather conditions. Therefore, obtaining the IFIA Innovation Standard would help this project to be launched worldwide.
