Ginger Land Preparation

With the onset of early summer showers, the area will be ploughed four to five times or dug completely to bring the soil to fine tilth.
Beds with an inter-space of 50 cm between them are made with a width of about 1 m, a height of 30 cm, and a length that is convenient.
When growing an irrigated crop, ridges are spaced 40 cm apart.
Solarization of beds for 40 days using transparent polythene sheets is recommended in places prone to rhizome rot disease and worm infestations.
