Agriculture in Aceh has experienced rapid progress, one of them in the shallot agriculture sector. We found out that the onion plant is one of the ingredients that are mandatory in every dish, therefore a lot of updates are made by farmers to grow shallots.

Here's how to grow onions you can do:
The first way to plant shallots is the selection of quality red onion seeds, we know there are many types of onion seeds both native to the country and abroad.

In addition there are ways to choose a quality seed that is looking for onion plants that have tubers about 100 days old, if you still feel confused how to choose red onion seeds please note the steps below:

1. The appearance of the seedlings must be solid and healthy and the color must fade
2. Next, try to cut the bottom of the red onion if it is without green, meaning that the bud has grown.

Then all you need to do is prepare the shallot plant land, you can make a large area of dike in accordance with how much you want to plant our suggestion to give a distance between the embankment of one another about 50 cm.

Next is the process of planting shallots to the field, before that, prepare shallot seeds that are less than 2 months old. Tips from us to cut the tip of the red onion along the 0.5 which aims to accelerate the process of shoot growth.

You already know that red onions cannot live in drought, therefore you are obliged to water shallots 2 times a day (morning and evening) until the plants are more than 10 days after that the watering process is only done once.

The next method of planting shallots is pest control, because there are many pests that attack red onion plants but there are some that often attack including caterpillars.

The last way to grow shallots is the harvest process, which is what farmers often wait for because they will soon get money.
