Onion, a widely consumed vegetable across the country throughout the year, is mainly cultivated in
three seasons i.e. during kharif, late kharif, and rabi. The crop being harvested during the rabi accounts for 60% of onion production, hits the markets from March to June. The same crop continues to meet the consumer demand till October-November every year before the kharif crop is harvested and brought to the market. Therefore, it becomes pivotal to successfully store rabi onion so as to main tain its supply in the markets. The Onion is a semi-perishable crop and 30-40% of the crop gets lose during the storage. During natural calamities, the losses go beyond 40% that leads to heavy stress both on demand and supply. The supply volatility creates market distress causing a steep rise in the price of onion that eventually affects the end consumers. A adequate storage facility will help in checking the supply volatility and steep rise in onion prices.
