Technologies for Primary Storage Of Onions

India is the second producer of onions, all over the world. The dry and humid weather in India makes it tough for onions to remain fresh for extended periods of time. Traditional onion heap storage & bamboo pavilions for ventilated onion storage are inadequate to prolong the life of onions in storage. Until the very next harvest, the onions rot in such kinds of storages over the duration of the year. By decomposing over the span of the year, over 40% of all onions which are retained after harvest get lost. In order to meet the strategic integration of onions for the general public, this lessens the onion reserves year round. The rate of onions rises as a result of the supply crisis. A very fundamental food that is needed by the majority of individuals is onions. Onion shortage and rate hike pose significant challenges for the nation’s citizens. India is also the world’s second-largest exporter of onions. The country’s economy may suffer significantly from an onion shortage. This made clear the value of a stable storage solution for onions in order to maximize their shelf life. Onion preservation will lead to far less weight reduction and physiological deterioration, sustaining the crop’s availability all year round. By boosting onion export, proper onion storage would both meet the nation’s population’s basic necessity of food and enhance the nation’s economy.The longevity of onions would be lengthened by using this storage solution. To preserve the quality of onions, this system would give them the optimal temperature (25°C–30°C), humidity (65%–70%), and ventilation. Furthermore, it will detect any rotten onions in the storage and notify the user or client so that they can dispose of them and prevent the infection from spreading to other onions.
