Saffron harvest-OF010546.jpg
November 1994, San Pedro, La Mancha, Spain --- Harvesters pick the three red-orange stigma from each saffron crocus blossom to be sold as the saffron spice. It takes approximately 70,000 blossoms to produce a pound of spice, roughly equivalent to $300-$400 per pound for the farmer. --- Image by © Owen Franken/CORBIS
