Onion Storage
Following are some of the salient features of improved storage structures for onion
• Construction of structure on raised platform to prevent moisture contact and dampness.
• Use of Mangalore tiled roof or other suitable material to prevent build-up, high temperature inside.
• Providing bottom ventilation for free and faster air circulation to avoid formation of hot and humid pockets between the onion layers.
• Avoid direct sunlight on onion bulbs to reduce sunscald, fading of colour and quality deterioration.
• Restriction on width of each stack to 60-75 cm for hot and humid weather, 75 - 90 cm for mild and humid weather and 90-120 cm for mild and dry weather conditions.
• Maintenance of stacking height to 100 cm for small and multiplier onions and hot weather and 120 cm for mild weather and for big onions to avoid pressure bruising.
• Providing cubicles instead of continuous stack and sufficient space for ventilation from all sides.
• One cubic meter area of store accommodates about 750 kg onions. Accordingly construction of godown for required capacity and construction of more units instead of single big structure and in zigzag manner when constructed in more rows to have better aeration.
• Providing 2-tier if space available is insufficient.
• Periodical disinfection of structures and premises to check rottage. The cost-efficient of structures is based on locally - available materials and labour.

I sugest one remedy for your problem. Ask Calc. Phos. 6x one bottle of either SBL or BAKSON Company from any Homoeopathy Medical Stores.Take 10 tablets out of it and make powder just by hands and sprinkle them over 1 Kg of Onions.
