Turmeric plants are widely grown in tropical areas of India, where over 50,000+ acres are cultivated every year. Turmeric is one of the main ingredients of curry powder, and is used to give it the characteristic yellow colour. It is also delicious added to rice dishes, seafood, and mustards and pickles.Turmeric has also been used as an alternative to medicine and can be made into a drink. The plant has long leaves, surrounding spikes where small flowers form. However the root, or ‘rhizome’ of the turmeric plant is harvested, in much the same way as ginger. The turmeric rhizome takes about 10 months to grow before it can be harvested; it is then boiled, cleaned and dried in the sun. Most of the harvested turmeric is ground up and sold in jars for use in cooking, however the fresh root turmeric can also be used. Turmeric can be cultivated organically as an intercrop along with other crops provided that all the companion crops are also organically grown.
