Rutgers Cooperative Extension is seeking input from New Jersey growers regarding their interest in producing ginger and turmeric as specialty crops in the state. Information collected through this survey will help identify current production practices, perceived challenges, and research and Extension needs associated with ginger and turmeric production in the region.

Survey responses will also contribute to the development of a multi-state Specialty Crop Research Initiative (SCRI) preproposal led by University of Georgia, with Rutgers contributing to the weed management component of the project. The goal of this effort is to better understand grower needs and support future research and Extension programming focused on sustainable production practices for these emerging specialty crops.

The survey is brief and should take only a few minutes to complete.

We encourage participation from growers currently producing ginger or turmeric, as well as those interested in potentially incorporating these crops into their farming operation.

Thank you for your participation and support
