In an effort to produce high quality Curcuma aromatica Salisbury in the southern area of Korea, a variety of shade-method was used to prevent withering during the summer. The experimental results are summarized as follows. The effect of shading on emergence of Curcuma aromatica Salisbury rhizome was none or very little. The effect of shading on the growth and development of Curcuma aromatica Salisbury was the highest under a shade rate of 15∼30%. In this case the size of the plant height was the biggest and leaves the largest, thus showing the best condition for plant growth. The growth of rhizome under a shade rate of 15% was more active than that without shading. The weight of rhizome in this case was the largest, and thus showing the best condition for rhizome growth.
