The invention discloses a process for planting ginger by constructing a shelter for shading. The process comprises the following steps: 1) transplanting a row of ginger stalks every three small gingerrows, wherein one ginger stalk is transplanted every one meter in each row and three ginger stalks are transplanted in each row; 2) bundling bamboo sticks for transverse blocking at a place 1.5 meters away from the ridge surface to form an aligned net frame; and 3) arranging an upper shelter on the bamboo sticks, laying saccharum arundinaceum, finally pressing the saccharum arundinaceum by usingthe bamboo sticks, and carrying out firm fastening. According to the process for planting ginger by constructing the shelter for shading, young seedlings are protected from being irradiated by stronglight at an early stage, and sufficient illumination is provided in a later stage for photosynthesis, so that the expansion of the underground rhizome is promoted, and the quality of the ginger is improved.
