Onion (Allium cepa L.) is one of the important commercial spice crop grown in India for its varied utilization in different cuisines. Odisha produces less than 20% of its consumption needs and for the rest it has to depend on imports from other states. The production and productivity of onion mainly depends upon its genotype, edaphic and climatological factors.

An experiment was carried out on Storability of Onion seeds as influencedby varieties, date of sowing and storage containers (Allium cepaL.)one of the major limitations in onion cultivation in India is lack of good quality seed at the time of sowing production and make available quality seeds are of paramount importance to sustain onion production in the country. Onion is a poor storer, during storage period, per cent germination was highest in 10th November produce crop.

Lack of recommended or released variety of high yielding as well as good keeping quality in the country, it creates price fluctuation during off season arrival period. To meet out the domestic requirement and also to fulfil the export demand, selection of high yielding genotype under different agro climatic condition is necessary.

A field experiments was conducted at NHRDF, Regional Research Station, Chitegaon, Nashik in three consecutive years during rabi 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16 on onion variety NHRDF Red-2 for the management of onion thrips through basal application and spray of different insecticides. The soil application of the treatments was given before planting and spray was started at 10 DAP after the appearance of thrips and subsequently sprays were given at ten days interval.

A field trial was conducted at Regional Research station, NHRDF, Nashik in three consecutive years during Rabi 2014-15, 2015-16 and 2016-17 on onion variety Agrifound Light Red for the management of onion thrips by applying different doses of nitrogen as basal application. The result showed that, lowest mean thrips population (22.56 nymphs/plant) were recorded in without N (0 % Nitrogen), however, highest gross yield (306.89q/ha) was recorded in higher application of N (100% of the recommended dose as basal application through calcium nitrate).

A field experiment was conducted at Vegetable Research Farm, College of Horticulture, Mandsaur (MP) during rabi season of 2014-15 to investigate the influence of irrigation regimes and varieties on growth, yield and quality of onion. The treatments comprised of three levels of irrigation (1.0, 0.75 and 0.50 IW: CPE ratio) and three different varieties (NHRDF Red-1, NHRDF Red-3, Agrifound Light Red). The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. The irrigation level I1 (IW:CPE=1.

Water-logging is one of the major abiotic stress that severely limits onion productivity world-wide. In onion, bulb size and yield are the economically important parameters that are getting seriously hampered due to frequent flooding events during Kharif season. An experiment was conducted under artificial waterlogging condition to identify the most sensitive growth stage for water logging stress in onion variety Bhima Super during Kharif 2017. The 45 days old seedlings were transplanted in plastic pots and the entire growth period of onion crop was divided into 11 different growth phases.

Weed is a plant growing where it is not desired so weeds are ubiquitous. The vegetable fields are usually infested by a wide spectrum of broad and grassy weeds. Weeds compete with the crops for water, soil, nutrients, light, space and crop yields are significantly reduced as reported by several studies. The vegetable as well as agricultural crops are infested with a variety of weeds. Out of over 800 weeds documented in India, 80 are considered as serious and nearly 200 as major weeds. They also harbour many insect-pests and microorganisms.
