Assam produces high quality turmeric known for its rich colour and medicinal value. The crop is widely cultivated and has strong potential for value added products.
Turmeric is a significant spice crop of Assam and is valued for its colour, flavour, and medicinal properties. It is widely used in food preparation, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and health products. India is one of the largest exporters of turmeric and turmeric-based products, providing strong export opportunities for producers. Assam’s favourable agro-climatic conditions and increasing adoption of organic cultivation enhance the quality of turmeric produced in the state. Establishing processing units for turmeric powder, curcumin extraction, and herbal products can create opportunities for MSMEs.
