Proximate and Nutritional Composition of Stored Bulb Onions as Affected by Harvest and Postharvest Treatments

Proximate and Nutritional Composition of Stored Bulb Onions as Affected by Harvest and Postharvest Treatments

Productivity of bulb onions (Allium cepa L.) is largely constrained by postharvest losses. There are several postharvest strategies applicable to onions, but they are mostly applied singularly and therefore their combined effects have not been well studied. This study was set out to evaluate the eff...
