India’s onion production likely to record higher

06 Jan 2016 Evaluate

Record onion production is likely this year with farmers diverting cropping of oilseeds and cotton in favour of the vegetable after assured positive returns in the past few years. Total acreage under rabi season crop would increase by 15-20 percent this year. The rabi sowing season of onion contributes nearly 60 percent of India's annual output. The kharif and late-kharif sowing seasons contribute 20 percent each to the annual cycle of onion production, as per the data of National Horticultural Research and Development Foundation (NHRDF).

Based on this estimate, India's annual onion output would set a new record at over 20.6 million tons this year, breaching the previous record of 19.40 million tons in 2013-14. The overall onion production during 2015-16 is expected to increase 10-15 percent, provided the current favourable climatic conditions continue throughout the rest of the season till harvesting.

Meanwhile, transplanting of rabi onion seedlings in Maharashtra started from mid-December and will continue for a month. Indications are that transplantation of onion seedlings has been robust in major centres like Nasik, Beed, Latur and Aurangabad in Maharashtra. The state contributes around 30 percent of India's annual production.
