Abstract | ||
This work was carried out to improve the quality and yield of Onion Giza 6cv. that grown by sets . Sets were grown on September 12 and 16 in 2006/ 2007 and 2007/ 2008 seasons ,respectively .Plants were subjected to irrigation treatment intervals. Results showed that , increasing the period between irrigations led to a significant reduction in percentage of double bulbs. Application of irrigation later in the growing seasons gave a simultaneous increase in total yield. Plots that received 4 irrigations , gave the lowest weight loss . | ||
