Curcumin and Curcuminoids are not treated as the same term in RFQ fields. During discussions regarding the 2026 Codex, adjustments were also made to clarify the expression in CXS 359-2024 as "coloring power expressed as curcuminoids ." ( FAOHome )
3. Production, Harvest & Post-harvest
The key point of the production dataset is that turmeric is an rhizome crop that uses rhizomes as a propagation medium rather than seeds . Kew classifies C. longa as a rhizomatous geophyte. ( Plants of the World Online )

The official inspection list of the Spices Board Quality Evaluation Laboratory includes Aflatoxin (B1, B2, G1, G2), Moisture, Sudan Dye I–IV, Volatile Oil, and Curcumin , while the separate quality inspection list includes Added Starch, Foreign Matter, E. coli, etc. ( Indian Spices )
In particular, since the Spices Board's inspection guidelines specify Sudan I–IV analysis for turmeric, the risk of contamination with illegal synthetic dyes exploiting the strong color of turmeric powder must be managed as a separate Quality Risk. ( Indian Spices )
