Lakadong in different agro-climate zones of North East India for ascertaining factors influencing curcumin content in the region
October 5, 2006 to
November 18, 2011
Higher curcumin content of turmeric fetches better price in international market. The curcumin content may vary between different varieties of turmeric (Curcuma longa). Further, the developmental status of the rhizome and various agroclimatic factors can also influence the curcumin content significantly. The Lakadong variety of turmeric, which is grown in some parts of Meghalaya, is reported to contain high curcumin content (7.4%) and thus has immense potential for commercialisation.The Architecture of future grid- Smart Grid
