- Description
- Background: Successful crop production in any crop depends on the good agronomic practices. Being a commercial crop, onion needs good attention during the crop growth stages, most of the times, in onion cultivation farmers follow broadcasting method which leads to the wastage of seeds, seedling mortality and poor germination and it will affect the total yield and productivity. Methods: To identify the best planting method an investigation on performance of seed drill versus transplanted onion was conducted at University of Agricultural Sciences, Main Agriculture Research Station, Dharwad. Result: Results indicated that, T3- (Transplanting) performed superior for all the vegetative and yield parameters studied. Plant height 55.57 cm, leaf number (7.86, 8.29 and 8.08 in pooled), Leaf width (1.03 cm, 0.99 cm pooled 1.01 cm). Total yield: (21.97 t/ha, 22.05 t/ha and 22.01 t/ha), marketable yield (20.74 t/ha 20.95 t/ha and 20.85 t/ha), bulb weight (64.00 g, 53.00 g and 53.90 g in pooled, analysis). From this, it can be concluded that transplanting of onion was better compared to other methods. (2024), (Agricultural Research Communication Centre). All rights reserved.
