- Intervention effect Onion phenology, growth and yield components were significantly affected by N and P rates and interactions.
- Intervention effect Onion seed yield and quality varied significantly among treatment combinations.
- Intervention effect N at 100 kg N ha-1 with P at 70 kg P2O5 ha-1 produced the highest onion seed yield, 1858.82 kg ha-1.
- Intervention effect The same N and P combination increased onion seed yield by about 57.72% over no fertilizer.
- Intervention effect N at 100 kg N ha-1 gave the highest onion seed germination percentage as a main factor.
- Recommendation The authors recommend N at 100 kg N ha-1 and P at 70 kg P2O5 ha-1 for onion seed production in similar areas.
