Turmeric (Curcuma longa)

India is the world’s largest producer and exporter of turmeric, supplying nearly 80% of global demand. Renowned for its vibrant golden-yellow colour, earthy aroma, and potent curcumin content, Indian turmeric is highly valued in culinary, medicinal, and cosmetic industries worldwide.
