Organic Mandya’s Lakadong turmeric powder is sourced from farmers in Meghalaya, where the climate and soil naturally support turmeric cultivation with high curcumin levels. The turmeric is grown using Organic Mandya and sustainable farming practices without synthetic pesticides or harmful chemical fertilizers.

After harvesting, the turmeric rhizomes are cleaned carefully to remove soil and impurities. They are then dried naturally to preserve aroma, colour, and texture before being finely ground into turmeric powder. This careful handling helps maintain the natural properties of the spice while ensuring consistency for daily cooking.

The emphasis remains on:

• Clean sourcing practices
• Minimal processing
• Preservation of natural aroma and colour
• No artificial additives or fillers
• Consistent texture and usability

Good quality turmeric powder can usually be identified through a few simple characteristics:
