•Agricultural expert Anupam Chaturvedi advises balanced nutrient application for onion crops in February-March due to rising temperatures.
•Apply 20 kg nitrogen, 10 kg potash, and 5 kg sulfur per acre during bulb formation for better quality.
•Spraying boron and zinc sulfate improves onion quality, ensures uniform bulb size, and accelerates maturity, leading to better market prices.
•Practice light irrigation every 7-10 days to maintain soil moisture, avoiding overwatering to prevent root rot, and keep fields weed-free.
