Abstract: The turmeric varieties Suvarna (PCT-8), Suguna (PCT-13) and Sudarshana (PCT-14), were harvested and stored for a period of nine months. Samples were analysed for curcumin and oleoresin at monthly intervals. Curcumin and oleoresin levels were not affected by storage. The marginal increase in these constitutents after sprouting is only relative as the nutrients like carbohydrates get progressively depleted with the progress of sprouting and growth of the rhizomes and fingers are also discussed
