Dried Whole Ginger
Dried Whole Ginger is the whole form of the ginger root. Its properties are very similar to Split Ginger although their practical applications differ slightly. Extractors who use ginger for oleoresin extraction for example, get better yields from Whole Ginger as opposed to Split Ginger. Moreover, split ginger is considered a value-added product and hence the market rates are accordingly significantly higher compared to Whole Ginger, whose rates are generally much more competitive.
