How many kilograms can red onions be produced per acre?

Red onion yield per mu

Under normal circumstances, the yield of red onions per mu is about 6,000-10,000 jin. The key to the yield of this vegetable lies in good management. After the onions are planted, the seedlings must be fully protected and the water and fertilizer management must be meticulous.

Red Onion Planting Profits

Planting red onions is not very profitable, because its market price is not high, only about 0.8 yuan per catty. After deducting the cost, the net income per mu of land is only about 700-1000 yuan.

The current planting prospects for red onions are not particularly good, because this vegetable is not suitable for long-term storage. If there is a year with heavy rain, it will easily become unsalable, so we need to strengthen market forecasts and build a logistics system.

High-yield planting technology of red onion

1. Land preparation and fertilization

Red onion is a plant with shallow roots, so it is best to choose a flat, loose, fertile, and water-retaining plot for planting. Before planting, the land should be leveled and broken up, and the base fertilizer should be sufficient and evenly distributed to increase the yield.

2. Sowing

The best time to sow red onions is from September to October, mainly by broadcasting, with a sowing depth of about 2 cm. From sowing to before germination, the soil needs to be kept slightly moist at all times.
