What exactly is turmeric?

From a botanical perspective, turmeric is more properly known as curcuma longa and is a member of the zingiberaceae plant family.  In practical terms it’s a compact bushy plant, which thrives in regions where there is a combination of warm temperatures and plenty of rainfall, hence it’s mainly found in Asia, particularly India.  It’s cultivated principally for its rhizomes (roots), which can be eaten raw or cooked from fresh, but are more often dried and ground into powder or used for the production of turmeric oil.
