Onion output to touch record high this year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
India onion production this year is likely to touch a record 95 lakh tonnes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but it may not result in a sharp fall in prices due to high investment costs involved,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a top official said.
output is estimated to be a record 95 lakh tonne in 2009 compared to around 85 lakh tonne last year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Nasik-based National Horticulture Research and Development Foundation (NHRDF) Additional Director Satish Bhonde said.
He said onion produce per hectare is expected to rise by 13 per cent to 16-17 tonne in top producing states of Maharashtra,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh from 15 tonnes per hectare in 2008.
of crop technology and irrigation has improved onion yields,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], though acreage remained at last year level of 5.5 lakh hectare,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Mr. Bhonde said.
However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the rich yield is unlikely to translate into lower prices. wholesale prices of onions are unlikely to fall significantly because farmers are storing the crop in a big way. Also,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], higher production cost may not allow them to sell at lower rates,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he said.
According to NHRDF data,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the wholesale prices were ruling at Rs. 6-7 per kg on Tuesday at Lasalgaon in Maharashtra,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Asia biggest onion market.
Harvesting of the summer or rabi crop,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which accounts for 60 per cent of India onion production,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is almost complete and output is estimated to be about 45 lakh tonne,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the NHRDF said.
India has three seasons for onion kharif (winter),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], late kharif and rabi (summer). The country has harvested 46 lakh tonnes from both kharif and late kharif,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it added.
