How to increase your onion yield
Onions and garlic have a relatively low nutrient uptake efficiency, due to their shallow root system characterised by thick roots with very few and short hairs. So to achieve optimum yields it is important to apply nutrients as close as possible to the rooting zone in frequently and readily available forms.
Check if your onions have a nutrient deficiency
Identify and diagnose if your onions are suffering from nutrient deficiencies and learn how to control or correct the deficiency. Choose a nutrient below to learn more about the symptoms of its deficiency in onions and its effect on crop growth and development.
