1. Prepared By: ARCHIE T. EUGENIO BAT-3 CPT TURMERIC PLANTATION

2. INTRODUCTION Turmeric is the dried rhizome of Curcuma longa L., a herbaceous perennial belonging to the family Zingiberaceae and a native of South Asia particularly India.

3. INTRODUCTION The plant is propagated from rhizomes. The leaves are long, broad, lanceolate and bright green. The flowers are pale yellow and borne on dense spikes. The pseudostems are shorter than leaves.

4. INTRODUCTION It is used in diversified forms as a condiment, flavouring and colouring agent and as a principal ingredient in Indian culinary as curry powder.

8. CLIMATE/ SOIL REQUIREMENTS; ▪ Turmeric can be grown from sea level to 1500m, at temperature range of 20 – 35°C with a rainfall of 1500mm or more per annum, or under irrigated conditions

9. CLIMATE/ SOIL REQUIREMENTS; ▪ Turmeric can be grown in diverse tropical conditions from sea level to 1500m ▪ It requires annual rainfall of 1500mm or higher. However, it can be grown in the dry zone under irrigation. ▪ Ideal temperature range is 20 – 35°C

10. CLIMATE/ SOIL REQUIREMENTS; Turmeric can grow in many soil types. ▪ However, well-drained sandy loam soils rich in organic matter are the most suitable. Poorly drained, rocky or clay type soils are not suitable. ▪ The ideal pH is between 5.5 – 7.8

11. CULTIVATION Turmeric is generally propagated by using mother rhizomes, primary and secondary fingers. Turmeric does not grow from seed. Vegetative: Commonly propagated by dividing and planting the rhizome.

12. PROPAGATION Because Turmeric is a perennial herb, the clumps will need to be broken up and fresh pieces planted every 3 to 4 years. SOURCE:www.phytotheca.com turmeric farming.

13. LAND PREPARATION During land preparation broadcast 30-40 tons per acre of farmyard manure or compost and dig it in. ▪ Field should be ploughed/dug deep up to 35-40cm in depth ▪ The soil should be is brought to a fine filth by digging and harrowing

14. LAND PREPARATION ▪ Before planting make beds of 1.0 – 1.5m wide, 15cm height and of convenient length. The beds are spaced 50cm from each other. Source: Tumeric Farming,ishamba.com

15. PLANTING Healthy and disease-free mother and finger rhizomes are used for planting. Planting in middle of May is ideal. Rhizomes weighing 20-30 grams with two healthy buds are using for planting. Before planting of rhizomes are treated with 0.3% Dithane M 45.

16. PLANTING Before planting, cut rhizomes into pieces that are 1–3” long, making sure each piece has multiple healthy-appearing “buds”. Let the pieces dry for a day or two to help prevent rot. Plant with a bud pointing upwards, about 2–4” deep. The treated rhizomes are planted at spacing of 25 x 25 cm or 45 x 25 cm in ridges and furrows method. One hectare 2,500 kg rhizome is required.

17. SOIL NUTRIENT REQUIREMENTS Nitrogen is essential for boosting up vegetative growth and thereby yield. Phosphorus is necessary for root development while K is involved in transportation of carbohydrates to rhizomes. In addition, K also improves curcumin content. There was little response to incremental doses of K up to 180 kg/ha in respect of morphological as well as rhizome characters of turmeric.

18. WATER MANAGEMENT In irrigated crop, depending on weather and son conditions, 15-40 irrigations is required at 7-10 days intervals. Irrigation is the artificial application of water to soil for the purpose of crop production. Irrigation water is supplied to supplement the water available from rainfall and for the contribution to soil moisture from ground water.

19. DRIP IRRIGATION In line drip line with 4 lph emitters spaced at 40 or 60 cm is found suitable for Turmeric.

20. APPLICATION OF FERTILIZER (ORGANIC AND INORGANIC) Farmyard manure or compost serves as a vital organic source of nutrients for turmeric plants. A recommended dosage of 30-40 tonnes per hectare is applied by broadcasting and plowing during land preparation. Alternatively, it can be used as a basal dressing by spreading over beds or pits during planting. Organic matter enriches the soil promotes beneficial microbial activity, and enhances plant health Chemical Fertilizer Application- To supplement the nutrient requirements of turmeric, chemical fertilizers should be applied in split doses. The recommended dosage per hectare includes 60 kg of nitrogen (N), 50 kg of phosphorus and 120 kg of potassium . These should din a schedule, as outlined below :

21. LIGHT REQUIREMENTS Turmeric (C. longa) can handle full sun in moist settings but does especially well with direct sunlight in the mornings and afternoon shade in the South. Most curcuma do well in part shade or in light shade all day—for example, dappled sunlight or high, open shade.

26. HARVESTING OF TURMERIC Well managed turmeric crop is ready for harvest in sevedn to ten months(7-10 ) depending on the variety and time of sowing. The crop is generally harvested during January to March. On maturity, the leaves turn dry and are light brown to yellowish in colour . When harvesting turmeric, use a shovel, knife, hoe, and basket.
