— Crop Programme
Onion yield is decided in the first sixty days. Weed competition, thrips, and purple blotch each take their share quietly, and the loss only shows at grading. Our onion programme covers pre-emergence weed control, thrips management, and disease windows through bulb development.
Bulb size is built early. Protect the stand.
6 Products in the programme
— What Decides the Season
— The Schedule
A season plan written around growth stages, not the calendar. Doses are label rates — confirm against the product label before each spray.
0–20 days
Pre-emergence weed layer at sowing — the stand cannot outgrow weeds later.
20–45 days
Post-emergence grass control; thrips scouting twice a week.
45–70 days
Disease cover through humid spells; purple blotch and downy mildew windows.
70–100 days
Canopy health decides bulb size; rotate thrips chemistry, keep vigour steady.
100 days onwards
Stop sprays per label waiting periods; cure properly for storage grade.
Use agrochemicals responsibly. Read the label before use.
— The Programme
Products registered or recommended for onion, each with its dose per acre, timing, and precautions on the product page.
Spinosad 45% SC
Thrips scarring at bloom marks the berry for the rest of the season. One planned spray at 75 ml per acre protects the export grade that no later spray can restore.
Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP
Late blight moves faster than any curative programme. Curalis is priced against the cost of standing in a lost tomato block — not against the cheapest bag on the shelf.
Quizalofop-ethyl 5% EC
The first 45 days of weed competition in cotton cost more yield than most pests. One timed application per acre protects the stand at the stage that decides the boll load.
Pendimethalin 38.7% CS
Compare one planned pre-emergence application against two rounds of hand weeding per acre — the arithmetic settles itself before the crop is a month old.
Triacontanol 0.1% EW
A stronger canopy at squaring is what carries bolls to the finish. Trion is a scheduled investment in the frame of the crop, not a rescue spray.
Chelated Micronutrient Mixture (EDTA) — Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, B, Mo
Micronutrient deficiency does not announce itself — it just grades your produce down. At 100 g per acre, Chelamix costs less than the difference between two market grades on a single quintal.
