North America Saffron Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
DRIVERS
- Growing Demand for Saffron in Food and Beverages Industry
Saffron threads are widely used in the food business. Saffron is largely utilized as a spice, herb, and for flavoring. It is the finest alternative to synthetic additives and offers nutritional benefits as well. Therefore, it contributes positively to market growth. It is preferred over artificial components when used as a natural colorant and flavoring substance. It is used in a variety of recipes across the world by diverse cuisines. In addition, it is utilized in a variety of food compositions, such as cake mixes, beverage powders, powdered crème caramel, and other similar semi-ready-to-use saffron concoctions. Numerous foods and beverages are produced using saffron. The food and beverages sector of this market is anticipated to grow significantly over the next few years, mostly as a result of the spice's substantial value as a flavoring agent. The food segment is anticipated to have a high volume share due to its rising usage as a natural food ingredient in formulations and as a taste enhancer. Saffron enhances the flavor of many different meal categories. Demand for saffron is predicted to increase as the food industry expands in various areas.
- Increasing Consumer Awareness about Medicinal Properties and Health Benefits of Saffron
The younger generation is increasingly interested in healthy food in today's environment, which is driving up demand for active lives. There has been an upsurge in the number of health-conscious consumers worldwide during the last several years. The demand for food products that promote good health has increased as more people pursue active, healthy lifestyles. Obesity, food sensitivity, and other ailments are still on the rise, thus living a healthy lifestyle is becoming a traditional way of life.
Antioxidant-rich saffron has many health advantages. Picrocrocin, safranal, and crocin are three of the key chemical constituents in saffron that are active. These substances aid in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress in the human brain. Saffron is also recognized for its memory-improving, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant capabilities, which are likely to accelerate market expansion. Saffron is said to be able to combat free radicals that are thought to be the root cause of many illnesses, including cancer, diabetes, asthma, and inflammatory joint disease.
RESTRAINT
- High Cost of Saffron
Only three stigmata are present in each saffron flower. The stigmata are dried to maintain their color and flavor after being cut from the plant (together with their crimson pistils). One pound of saffron spice requires 75,000 saffron flowers because only a little portion of the blossom is used. Due to the limited amount of saffron spice produced per plant and the labor-intensive manual harvesting process, saffron is very expensive and may vary from country to country.
CHALLENGE
- Drastic Climatic Change
The sustainability of the food system is being impacted by climate change through changes in the natural and anthropogenic components of agroecosystems, which in turn affect farmer livelihoods, consumer preferences, and food security. Precipitation on an annual basis is increasing, as are significant rainfall occurrences, particularly in the spring. An excessive amount of spring rain can delay field operations, reduce crop establishment, prevent planting, and raise the prevalence of a number of bacterial and fungal crop diseases. It can also result in labor issues because it delays field activities. The amount and quality of saffron crop output are directly impacted by temperature and precipitation variations while scheduling crucial farm activities and the economic implications of pests, weeds, and diseases are indirectly impacted. Unfavorable weather also interferes with the transportation and supply chain of saffron.
Furthermore, fluctuations in temperature inhibit crop growth, shortening cropping seasons and lowering yields. An increase in oxidative stress in plants is brought on by a rise in tropospheric (or ground-level) ozone, which prevents photosynthesis and reduces plant growth. Extreme weather conditions, particularly floods and droughts, can damage crops and lower yields, which will ultimately have an impact on the market for saffron crops.
As a result, changing climatic circumstances negatively affect agriculture, diminishing production and confronting farmers and businesses, and ultimately limiting market expansion.
Post-COVID-19 Impact on North America Saffron Market
Post the pandemic, the demand for saffron increased as there were no more restrictions on the movement. Hence, the supply of products would be easy. In addition, the growing trend of processed food products and increased demand for saffron cultivation after the COVID-19 outbreak are expected to drive market growth.
Recent Development
- In May 2020, food news entitled “How adding a pinch of saffron to your food daily can magically improve your health” was published by the Times of India. This extraordinary spice has been used for centuries for its extraordinary therapeutic properties, which can both prevent and treat a number of health problems. Saffron has also been an excellent spice to bolster immunity and ward off seasonal illnesses aside from that. The importance of maintaining good health has increased as the globe fights the deadliest epidemic, COVID-19.
