Abstract
The present study “Standardization of turmeric stage for potential harvest of secondary
metabolites” was carried out at Dr. B.S.K.K.V., Dapoli University, Post Graduate Institute of
Post Harvest Technology and Management, Killa-Roha, Department of Post Harvest
Management of Medicinal, Aromatic, Plantation, Spices and Forest Crops, during the year 2021-
2022.
The present research was carried out to standardize the growth stage of turmeric for the
potential harvest of secondary metabolites. The experiment consisted of six treatments, which
includes different stages of harvesting from 4th months after planting to maturity. The maximum
secondary metabolites in shoot were observed in harvesting at 7th month after planting, also the
maximum potential harvest of secondary metabolites from fingers was found at the maturity of
turmeric.
