Onion crop has a very high yield potential if crop receives judicious management practices. One of the factors is the proper season of planting which is desirable for higher seed yield. In view of high local preference for colour, shape, size and taste, there are specific genotypes suites for specific locality. Normally aggregatum onion varieties does not flower and set seed and hence propagated through bulblets. The major constraint in the cultivation of aggregatum onion is the requirement of large quantity of seed bulbs for planting and cost of planting material. Cost of production can be reduced by using seeds as planting material. Therefore, major necessitate determining the optimum time of planting of bulb of seed setting aggregatum onion genotypes for better seed and residual bulb yield and quality.
