ABSTRACT
This study was carried out in Wad Elgatra and Abu Ajab of the Algezira scheme during the 2020 and 2021 rainy seasons to investigate the effect of transplanting date and variety on the growth and yield of onions. The experiment was carried out based on a split plot design with the transplanting date in the main plot, and variety in the subplot, and replicated three times. Data on growth, yield, and yield components were collected and analyzed using Mstatc. Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference Test was used to separate means at a 5% probability level. Late August transplanting increased leaf area plant-1, neck diameter, fresh weight plant-1, bulb marketable weight, while the early August transplanting recorded the lowest leaf area plant-1, neck diameter, fresh weight plant-1, bulb marketable weight. The highest bulb fresh weight and bulb yield were recorded by the mid-August transplanting. Transplanting in mid-August had a higher bulb yield (37.18 t ha-1) in 2021 at Wad Elgatra, while late August transplanting produced the least (5.26 t ha-1) in 2020 at Abu Ajab. Baftaim recorded the leaf area plant-1, neck diameter, fresh weight plant-1, bulb marketable weight, and bulb yield. Saggai recorded the greater bulb fresh weight. Abuferawa had the least potential for growth and yield in the experiment. The interaction between mid-August and Baftaim at Wad Elgatra recorded the highest yield (19.53 t ha-1) in 2020; however, the interaction between late August and Abuferawa at Wad Elgatra produced a lower yield (8.79 t ha-1). Based on the findings, it could be suggested that farmers in the study area, should adopt the cultivation of Baftaim and Saggai during the early and mid-August to achieve higher and marketable onion yield productivity in the Sudan Republic.
