Answer: Option D
Solution:
The best-suited variety for green ginger is Himgiri.Ginger is always propagated vegetatively and the number of clones is limited. The clones differ in their size, the fibre and moisture content of the rhizomes and also in yield. The cultivars are usually named after the areas where they are cultivated.
