Mulieh Village, Meghalaya, India
A Gold Standard In Turmeric
Lakadong is an incredibly potent heritage variety with a whopping 9.8% curcumin vs an average of 1-2% in other varieties. It stands out not only in potency, but flavour, aroma and colour.
An All Women Farmer Community
A small women farmer community in Mulieh village & its surrounds traditionally grows & hand processes the world’s most medicinal turmeric variety.
Rich Agro-biodiversity
A diverse variety of pumpkin & chayotes are nurtured alongside lakadong turmeric plants. Khasi mandarins & maize are scattered across the farm, while pomelos & tamarillos are grown on the periphery.
Rain Soaked Hills
Only farmyard manure is added to the already fertile mountain soil of West Jaintia Hills. Abundant rainfall and an exceptional micro-climate makes lakadong turmeric one of a kind.
