A) Name of the Applicant : Mizoram Small Farmers Agribusiness Consortium B) Address : Mizoram Small Farmers Agribusiness Consortium, Top Floor, Directorate of Horticulture Building, Tuikual South, Near Tennis Court, Aizawl – 796 001, Mizoram, India. Facilitated By: Department of Horticulture, Government of Mizoram. C) Name of the Geographical Indication : MIZO GINGER D) Types of Good : Class 30 - Ginger E) Specification: Ginger is one of the most important cash crops in Mizoram. Being a tropical crop, it requires warm and humid climate. Cool climate is needed during rhizome development. In Mizoram, ginger is grown in sub-tropical hill zone where soil is acidic in nature and the climate is favourable for ginger cultivation. Local cultivars of ginger viz., Thingpui, Thinglaidum and Thingaria are grown at large scale, of which Thingpui and Thinglaidum are the most popular local cultivars of the state. Locally known as Sawhthing, Mizo gingers are famous as they are very pungent and contain higher quantity of gingerol and volatile oil compared to the varieties like Nadia and Varada or many other local and exotic varieties. Both Thinglaidum and Thingpui have comparatively less fibre content compared to many other varieties grown in the North Eastern region. Due to higher content of the Gingerol and other pungent principles, they are very pungent. GI Journal No. 144 7 March 31, 2021 The size of the rhizome of Thinglaidum is small and suitable for processing of dried ginger or converting to dried spice. The dried rhizome of this variety is preferred for commercial uses. On the other hand, the Thingpui variety has a thick and attractive size and the flesh is light yellow in colour. Due to its bold size and being comparatively less pungent, it is good for table purpose.

Description of Mizo Ginger plant The ginger plant is an aromatic herbaceous perennial grown as an annual crop. The plant has an erect stem and fibrous roots, aerial shoots (pseudostem) with leaves, and the underground stem (rhizome). The aerial shoots reach a height of 50-90 cm and have many narrow leaves borne on very short petioles and with sheaths that are long and narrow, and the overlapping sheaths produce the aerial shoot. The leaves are smooth, dark green in colour and about 15-20 cm long, narrow, lanceolate and with a prominent midrib. The plant has fibrous roots that emerge from the branched rhizomes. Closely grouped, unbranched, pseudo-stems or aerial shoots are produced from the rhizomes. Ginger is asexually propagated from portions of the rhizome. The flowers of ginger are usually sterile and rarely set seed. When the plants are about nine months old, the green leaves turn yellow. Ginger is a subterranean stem (rhizome) modified for the vegetative propagation and storage of food materials. The stem or the rhizome has nodes with scale leaves and internodes. Except for the first few nodes, all the nodes have axillary buds. The ginger rhizome is much branched, somewhat resembling the palm of a hand with fingers. It has circular scars representing the nodes with small scales. Buds developing in the axil of these scales come up as aerial scoots with normal leaves. Fibrous roots are emitted from these nodes. Ginger roots are shallow, distributed within 30 cm deep in the soil, and only a few reach the lower soil layers. The rhizome continues to grow underground while the aerial shoots die out annually and the tail end of the rhizome also perishes when old.

Essential oil compositions of ginger from different geographical area have already been reported (Wohlmuth et al., 2006; van Beek et al., 1987; MacLeod and Pieris, 1984).The local varieties of ginger of Mizoram are very pungent and gingerol and oil content are considerably high in comparison to many other varieties of ginger grown under the ago-climatic situation of the state.

It is marketed in different forms such as raw ginger, dry ginger, bleached ginger, ginger powder, ginger oil, ginger oleoresin, ginger ale, candy, beer and wine, squash, ginger flakes etc. The dried rhizome is preferred for commercial uses. Ginger one of the five most important species of India. Oleoresin, commercially known as “Gingerin”, extracted from dried ginger is in great demand by the various food industries. Recent studies have shown that it is a good source of anti-oxidant Uses of Ginger Ginger is one of the most widely used condiments for various foods and beverages. It is used in a number of culinary preparations like curried and mixed vegetables, certain curried meats, table sauces, pickles, curry powders, ginger bread etc. It imparts flavour and pungency to food and GI Journal No. 144 9 March 31, 2021 beverages and is also mainly consumed as fresh paste, dried powder, slices preserved in syrup, candy (crystallized ginger) or flavouring tea.
