PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A genus of rhizomatous herbs distributed in the tropics of the world. Fourteen, species are reported to occur in India Z-officinale, which is the main source of ginger, is cultivated on a large scale in India. It is also used for medicinal purposes; major ginger-producing areas of the world are India, Malaysia, China, and West Indies. Two types of edible gingers are grown, the large type is known as chinese ginger and the small type known as Japanese Ginger. Only the former type is grown to any great extent. Preserved ginger is prepared by peeling off the thick scaly skin of the boiled roots, followed by boiling in a sugar solution. Dried ginger is the most common form in many areas and is of a light-buff coloration. Ginger oil is also available as food flavouring. There are two types of Indian ginger Cochin ginger, and Calicut ginger. Indian ginger is more starchy and is almost as pungent on Jamaican ginger but is less agreeable in odour. The ginger rhizome is to be stored from the time of harvesting in December to the time of sowing during April-May, a period of 250-300 days but it is a highly perishable item and is susceptible to attack by soil borne fungi, insects, and white ants, well developed and disease free rhizomes are selected for seed. The rhizomes are considered useful in diarrhea and colic and are sometimes used medicinally. The export market is also quite favourable for all these products. Hence, ginger cultivation yields good result for new investor and finds the trade is lucrative.
