Coriander cultivation started 2000 BC as one of the many plants in the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
Unlike Moroccan coriander, Indian coriander has a delightful green color, unique ‘football’ shape, and a bright citrusy flavor.
In India, coriander is cultivated in particularly all the states and constitutes an important subsidiary crop in the black cotton soils of Deccan and South India (Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu) and the rich silt loam of North India. In Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, over 100000 acres are under coriander cultivation. Similarly, it is grown on a fairly large scale in Punjab and neighbouring states.
