Nursery raising using protray method with single bud rhizomes
• Screening of diseased seed/seedling possible. • Reduced seed rate requirement.• Low cost of cultivation
Aeroponics- Potato Seed Production •Plants are grown in
troughs, tubes or other type of chambers
•Roots are hanged in space and are periodically
bathed in nutrient mist
•Easily absorb nutrients
•Easily absorb oxygen
•Less chance of root zone diseases
Long day Onion varieties
• Uttarakhand, HP, J&K.• 500 ha each state• Sown : October-November• Transplanting: February• Harvesting: July• Production: 20000 metric ton
• Sufficient seed not available• Brown Spanish and VL 3 • Storage structures not available
