In order to innovate a technical system for ginger cultivation，and improve its traditional
cultivation method，this paper studied the effect of fogging cultivation on microclimate of ginger field，ginger
growth and yield，water and air exchange parameters of ginger leaves by comparing the traditional shading and
bare land cultivation methods. The results showed that by increasing humidity，fogging cultivation could reduce
plant canopy and leaf temperature，increase stomatal conductance of leaves，significantly strengthen ginger leaf
photosynthetic and transpiration rates，and improve water use efficiency. Although ginger aerial part growth via
fogging cultivation was smaller than that via shading cultivation，rhizomes of ginger were larger. The yield from
fogging cultivation was 40.33 t·hm-2，which was increased 31.30% than that of bare land cultivation.
