ABSTRACT
The present investigation resulted that the application of Nitrogen 140 kg N ha-1 enhanced growth and yield parameters of onion variety viz., Agrifound Light Red as compared to control. It was also reported that the combine application of nitrogen and sulphur at different levels as N4S2 (140 kg N ha-1 + 30 kg S ha-1) were exhibited maximum growth and yield parameters except for neck thickness of bulb and storage losses, which recorded minimum in treatment N0S0 (control). It is revealed on the study of production economics of onion that significantly maximum bulb yield of 322.71q ha-1 was obtained in onion variety Agrifound Light Red. The highest net return of ` 2, 60,962 ha-1 with benefit cost ratio 5.50 was obtained in treatment T19 N4 S2 (140 kg N ha-1 + 30 kg S ha-1).
