Abstract

Four onion varieties were evaluated in two zones
from the eastern region of Cuba for three years. The experiments
were developed on an Eutric Loose Red Ferralitic soil and a
non-Carbonate Loose Brown soil. Plots were made up by five
furrows of 5.0 m long and 4,5 m wide, distributed in a randomized
block design with four replicates. The variables commercial
yield, bulb weight, total yield, first-class bulbs, number of leaves
per plant and number of tunics per bulb were evaluated. The
most influencing climatic factors were temperature and rainfall.
