Plant Details

Onion is a widely cultivated bulb vegetable known for its pungent flavor and versatility in cooking. It thrives in mild to warm climates with temperatures between 15–25°C and requires well-drained, sandy loam soil rich in organic matter. Onions are grown from seeds, sets, or transplants and mature in 90–120 days. They are consumed fresh, cooked, or processed into powders, pickles, and dehydrated flakes. Rich in sulfur compounds, antioxidants, and vitamins, onions offer numerous health benefits, including supporting heart health and boosting immunity. Proper irrigation, weed control, and pest management are essential for good yields. Onion is a key commercial crop, contributing significantly to domestic markets and exports.
