For ages, ginger has been used as a spice as well as medicine by many people. These applications were mainly popular in the Arabic, Indian, and Asian traditional communities. Later, the plant was exported into the European countries. Today, large scale cultivation is largely practiced in Sri Lanka, China, Australia, India, Hawaii, Japan, and Pakistan.
The ginger plant belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Its species name is Zingiber officinale. The crop grows to a height of about 45 cm. Leaves are lanceolate in nature and have a length of 18cm. The commercial products are the underground stems and rhizomes.
Growing Areas
Although the cultivation of ginger has widely spread throughout Sri Lanka, the main growing areas are still found in the wet zones. These are the districts of Kegalle, Colombo, Kandy, Kurungala, and Gampaha. During the past years, the total area of growth of this plant has been over 6000 hectares.
Some provinces in Sri Lanka also cultivate ginger alongside other crops like coconut.
Varieties
The large scale growing of ginger in Sri Lanka utilizes local as well as foreign varieties. The local varieties of ginger have small and fleshy rhizomes and are of the white color. These varieties are mainly used for drinks and beverages because of their strong aroma and taste.
The Chinese variety of ginger has watery rhizomes that are yellow in color. It is majorly used for pickles since its taste is low.
Soils
Deep well drained sandy loams largely favor the growth of ginger. These soils should be highly rich in organic matter. Manure and fertilizers should be added in order to improve the fertility of soils.
Climate
For successful growth, the elevation should reach a maximum height of 1500m above sea level.
The average annual rainfall should not be less than 1500mm. For areas prone to dry spells, irrigation should be applied. Generally warm temperatures with shade are also suitable. The pH value should range from 5 to 7.
Planting
Stem rhizomes are used for propagation of ginger. Deep planting of seeds is discouraged.
Harvesting
Change of the plantâ??s color to yellow and withering of leaves indicates readiness for harvesting. This occurs after the first 10 months of sowing. Care should be taken during the harvesting process to prevent the damaging of the rhizomes. Wooden sticks are used in this process.
The method of preserving the harvested ginger rhizomes is sun drying.
Coconuts from well-maintained estates are purchased. Coconuts undergo three-step sorting before finally packed for export. First step: Whole coconuts are sorted to remove immature and small nuts. Then husking is done as per buyer requirements. Second step: Husked coconuts are again sorted to ensure size, weight and quality.

Ginger is obtained from a flowering plant originating in Southeast Asia. Including ginger in your diet can have numerous physical and psychological health benefits.
Ginger is among the healthiest (and most delicious) spices on the planet. It belongs to the Zingiberaceae family, and it's closely related to turmeric, cardamom, and galangal.
The rhizome (underground part of the stem) is the part commonly used as a spice. It's often called ginger root or, simply, ginger. Ginger can be used fresh, dried, powdered, or as an oil or juice. It's a very common ingredient in recipes. It's sometimes added to processed foods and cosmetics.
Ginger increases serotonin and dopamine levels. This can reduce inflammation, which may cause depression. It could also provide benefits for anxiety, depression, dementia, Alzheimer's disease and post-traumatic stress disorder. Ease stomach pains: Ginger can treat nausea and motion sickness.
Garlic (Allium sativum) is an herb related to onion, leeks, and chives. It is commonly used for conditions related to the heart and blood system. Garlic produces a chemical called allicin. This is what seems to make garlic work for certain conditions. Allicin also makes garlic smell.
Despite the smell it is a major part of cooking all over the world because it adds such intense flavor that cannot be obtained without its addition.
People commonly use garlic for high blood pressure, high levels of cholesterol or other fats in the blood, and hardening of the arteries. It is also used for the common cold, osteoarthritis, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses. There is also no good evidence to support using garlic for COVID-19.
The chili, also called chili pepper in some parts of the world, is the fruit of the plants belongs to family Solanaceae and genus Capsicum. It is the one the most important and largest produced spice crops in Asia.
The culprit that gives the burning sensation in chilies is the chemical called capsaicin and the redness is due a chemical called capsanthin. Although originating in South America, chili has been adopted in Asia as a major component of Asian cuisine. Some of the health benefits of chili are: good source of iron and B-complex vitamins, protection against cancer, good for prostate health, reduces bacterial infections, etc.
