Turmeric By Econx Industries Ltd

Being one of the prominent names in this industry, we are actively indulged in manufacturing, exporting and supplying a huge collection of Turmeric from Pune, Maharashtra, India. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a rhizomatousherbaceousperennial plant of the ginger family. Its powder is a bright yellow powder made by dry grinding of mature turmeric rhizomes (underground stems). Production of turmeric happens mostly in southeast India, and needs temperatures between 20 Deg. C and 30 Deg. C (68 Deg. F and 86 Deg. F) and a considerable amount of annual rainfall to flourish. Plants are gathered annually for their rhizomes, and propagated from some of those rhizomes in the following season. Turmeric is native to Indonesia and southern India, where it has been harvested for more than 5,000 years. It has served an important role in many traditional cultures throughout the East, including being a revered member of the Ayurvedic pharmacopeia. While Arab traders introduced it into Europe in the 13th century, it has only recently become popular in Western cultures. Much of its recent popularity is owed to the recent research that has highlighted its therapeutic properties.
