In the field examinations, it was observed that salep, which is among the protected endemic plants, completely adapted to the region's climate and soil structure and gave high yields.

Expressing his satisfaction with their harvest, Ermiş said, "In the harvest we carried out today, we saw that we obtained three or four tubers from one tuber. This is very pleasing for us. We also got good results in saffron and garlic. The production of these products will increase even more with the support of our state, governorship and district governorship. Many farmers were given salep cultivation training by the District Directorate of Agriculture. I recommend salep production to all our farmers. I believe that it is a product that will provide significant income to farmers in the coming years."
