INTRODUCTION

Effective use of the raw material base of medicinal 

plants, wide use of medicinal plants in the prevention 

and treatment of diseases, organization of deep 

processing and value added chain by supporting 

business entities establishing cultural plantations of 

medicinal plants in order to create regions licorice, 

saffron, kaurak, lavender, stevia, chamomile, namatak, 

ravoch, mavrak, dalachoy, tograyhon, boymadaran, 

deer grass, kovul, peppermint and other medicinal 

plants specializing in the area of production. From 2022 

to 2026, new medicinal plant plantations will be 

established on an area of 36,000 hectares.

homologous chromosomes (24 chromosomes) and 

because each set of chromosomes has a unique shape 

and size, it can be propagated from seed. it's not. 

Saffron is propagated vegetatively through bulbs. 

Since ancient times, doctors have been using saffron 

plant as a sedative and pain reliever. Our great 

ancestor, Ibn Sina, said about saffron: "It is an 

astringent and a solvent. Because of the features of 

twisting and glues, it is also maturing. Its heat is 

moderate and unclogs: It corrects the smell and 

strengthens the internal organs. Drinking saffron

metabolism by adding herbal spices to daily food. 

Drinking saffron tea on a regular basis helps to cleanse 

the liver and kidneys, improve their performance, and 

reduce swelling in the liver area. We can even witness 

the dissolution of stones in the kidneys and gall bladder 

with the help of medicine prepared by mixing saffron 

water with honey. Regular intake of tincture made 

from saffron plant reduces and stops headaches, heart 

and liver colic. As it accelerates the production of 

serotonin hormone in the body, it creates a happy 

mood and relieves heart palpitations and anxiety. It 

helps to get out of the state of stress, suppresses 

various dreams and fears and temptations in the brain. 

Due to the presence of crocetin and glycoside crocein, 

which are the most important biologically active 

substances in saffron, it is quickly absorbed and 

unclogs the brain and blood vessels, dissolves frozen 

blood, as a result, blood pressure moderates, general 

body blood circulation improves, and fresh blood and 

oxygen reach the brain. it becomes easier to go. Since 

saffron contains digentibiose ester of crocin caratinoid 

crocetin, its fragrance is indescribable. For this reason, 

it is effective to smell saffron on a patient with zotiljam 

disease. A patient who smells saffron calms down and 

goes to sleep peacefully. With the help of saffron oil, it 

is possible to clean and smooth the respiratory tract, to 

improve the performance of the respiratory system. 

Another important substance that gives saffron its 

aroma is 2-hydroxy-4,4,6-trimethyl-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-

one, which gives saffron a hay-like smell when dried. 

will give. As a result, saffron has its own unique taste 

and gives flavor to food. Spicy glucoside picrocrocin 

ensures the spicy taste of the spice made from saffron. 

A-crocin carotenoid pigment and a-crocin can be used 

to give boiled and steamed rice a bright color along 

with a unique taste. Saffron tea is recommended for 

alleviating melancholy, depression, and fear. Saffron 

provides effective antispasmodic, diuretic and anti-

inflammatory benefits. Saffron can also be used to 

relieve chronic diseases such as dry bronchitis, 

measles, and whooping cough. The antimutagenic 

property of saffron prevents the development of 

cancerous tumors and helps to keep them at the same 

level. This characteristic compound - kaempferol - is 

found in saffron petals. 

The saffron aroma-active compounds contained in 

saffron raise human mood, improve memory, increase 

enthusiasm for learning, and protect brain cells from 

oxidative stress. Since ancient times, saffron has been 

mixed with hot milk and drunk, which in turn promotes 

the growth of brain tissue, improves memory and has 

a positive effect on vision. Boiling saffron in water and 

pouring it on the head little by little will induce sleep. 

Saffron contains about 28 volatile and aromatic 

compounds dominated by ketones and aldehydes, and 

its positive effects on the visual system have also been 

studied. Prevents age-related disorders, restores lost 

tension in the visual system, damaged photoreceptor 

cells. Stops eye sores and provides anti-aging benefits.
