MEDICINAL PLANTS
"Turmeric"

Origin: This research based plant originated in western India and its first use dates
back to 2500 years.
The word turmeric comes from the Arabic kourkoum (saffron), since it was believed
to
be a saffron variety.
Now let's move on to the definition of this plant

MEDICINAL PLANTS
"Turmeric"

Definition: Turmeric is a herbaceous plant, with perennial leaves that has

subterranean rhizomes that are used after the harvest as seasoning, tincture and
medicinal preparations. It can reach up to one meter in height when it has reached
its
full development. It has flowers of different colors grouped in basal spikes. The
rhizomes may have a thickness of five to eight centimeters; With a yellowish color.
In

We continue with aspects of interest

MEDICINAL PLANTS

Climate and Harvesting: The cultivation in our environment is still very limited, but
it
adapts very well because it is a kind of subtropical and tropical climate. Keep in
mind
that it can not withstand frost.
This is why it is planted at the end of the cold season on loose, fertile soils and
fertilizers, to allow the good development of the rhizomes that are the ones that are
marketed. It is not suitable for compacted, flooded or low drainage soils where
water
can be collected
The harvest is done at 10 months or earlier, according to the development of the
rhizomes, which coincides with the fall of the leaves at the beginning of the cold
periods. Harvesting must be done with great care to minimize the commercial
product
that rhizomes are.
