Abstract


The aim of this article is to contribute to the study of the saffron trade in Catalonia in the so-called period, starting from a rather unknown source: the regulation proceeded from the Diputado del Genera l, whose aim was to fight against the fraud that very often was committed and, thus, the delegates oversaw the whole saffron circuit all over the country; the tillage, work out and trade in the frame of an ambitious plan stablished in order to guarantee the quality of the catalan product and specially in order to control the fiscal incomes that the saffron trade supplied to the Generalitat.
