Constraints and Farmer’s Perception on Off Season Green Onion Production in Chitwan - A Survey / M. Dhital in Nepalese Horticulture, v. 10: 1 ([07/25/2015])

Title : Constraints and Farmer’s Perception on Off Season Green Onion Production in Chitwan - A Survey Material Type: printed text Authors: M. Dhital, Author ; Shakya, S.M., Author Publication Date: 2015 Article on page: 102-107 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Constraints, off season, green onion, farmers perception Abstract: The survey assessed the constraints and farmer’s perceptions on off season green
onion production in Shukranagar, Jagatpur and Gunjanagar VDCs in Chitwan, Nepal.
The primary data used for the investigation were obtained through the use of
questionnaire, focus group discussion and key informant survey. Thirty commercial
farmers and ten traders were randomly sampled for the study. Major constraints and
influencing factors for green onion production, and marketing system were looked into.
The study revealed that seedling raising was the most important problems faced by the
off season growers followed by weed problem, lack of crop insurance facility, and
diseases and pests. Lack of storage facility was the most important marketing problems
due to highly perishable nature of green onion followed by lack of appropriate
marketing facilities and fluctuation in the market price. Higher market price was the
major influencing factors for green onion cultivation followed by its short duration as
compared to bulb production which takes longer duration.

onion and its value added products have shown great promise recently in some rural
and urban areas in Nepal. This crop not only harnesses specific ecological niches but
also has it's potentials in local income and employment generation as well as import
substitution. Study on onion production and marketing wa~ carrieq out in 2007. Primary
and secondary data were used for the mterpretation. Primary data were collected
purposively from the onion producing farmers. Out of different types of vegetable
production the income contribution of onion was one percent only. The average price of
onion in the farm gate and wholesale market were Rs 9 and Rs 12 respectively. The
dry onion bulb supply was 97% from India and 3% from Nepal where as the green
onion vegetable supply was one percent from lndai and 99% from Nepal. The
constraints of onion production were high cost of cultivation, low price, available to
farmers and poor seed quality. There is po_ssible of growing off session onion in Nepal
as Agri found dark red variety is performing well both in mountain Tarai.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=261 Opportunities and Constraints on Onion Production In Nepal [printed text] / Megh B.
