It says in the video that Iran produces 360 metric tons of Saffron per year. One Kilogram of dried Saffron equals 100 Kgs of picked flowers which equals 170.000 individual flowers.
One metric ton = 1,000 Kg => 360 metric tons = 360,000 Kgs
Therefore, Iran produces (360,000 170,000) = 61,200,000,000 flowers a year. That's 61.2 billion flowers a year.
Let's say it takes an average of 0.5 seconds to pick one flower. The entire harvest would then take (0.5 61,200,000,000) = 30,600,000,000 seconds which equals (30,600,000,000 / 3600 / 24 / 365) ~ 970.32 years
It would take one worker ~ 970.32 years to complete one years production.
If they employed 100,000 workers it would take them 3.542 days of non-stop labour to pick them all. Crazy...

5 grams of saffron cost ~30$. Therefore, one Kg of Saffron costs 6000$. The retail value of one year of Iran's Saffron production euqals (360,000 * 6000) = 2,160,000,000$
Assuming they wholesale at 2$ a gram, they generate 720,000,000$ of revenue.
