Curcuma zanthorrhiza is a plant from the family Zingiberaceae that commonly grows in Indonesia. Traditional medicine, spices of food, beverages, cosmetics, and coloring agents, especially food coloring use the plant quite often. The experiments used a complete random factorial design with 3x3 replicates. The treatments consisted of Curcuma varieties (V) from Malang, Blora, and Sukoharjo, drought stress (K) expose was daily watering plants as the control (K1), one every two days watering plants (K2), and one every three days watering plants (K3). The research aimed to determine the response of Curcuma in agronomic characters and metabolite compounds during drought stress treatments. The drought stress (K) showed significant results on Curcuma plant height, in which three-day watering negatively affected the plant height. Sukoharjo variety with every-day watering produced the best rhizome weight compared to two other varieties. Secondary metabolites of xanthorrhizol and curcumin identified with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) analysis from the Sukoharjo variety ginger rhizome showed a relative concentration of 1.25 ± 0.46 and 1.53 ± 0.54, respectively.
