Onion is also known as ball onion, round onion, jade onion, onion, belongs to the lily family onion genus, is a 2-year-old herb. About the origin of the onion said a lot, but most believe that the onion is produced in southwestern Asia in Asia Minor, Asia Minor, Iran, Afghanistan, the high plateau area of the greater possibility, because in these areas so far can be found in the wild type of onion.
The origin of the onion has a history of more than 5000 years, 1000 BC passed to Egypt, and then to the Mediterranean region, the 16th century into the United States, the 17th century to Japan, and the beginning of the 20th century into our country.
Onions are widely distributed in our country, north and south are cultivated all over the world, and the planting area is still expanding, is currently one of the main vegetables in China. China has become one of the four countries with large onion production (China, India, the United States, Japan). China's planting area is mainly in Shandong, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and other places.
Onion due to its origin in the continental climate zone, the local climate change is intense, the air is dry, and there are obvious seasonal changes in soil moisture, so in the process of phylogeny, onion due to long-term adaptation to this special environment, not only in the morphology of the corresponding changes - shortening of the stem disk, moisture-loving root system, drought-resistant leaf type, with the function of storage of the bulb, in the physiology has also produced certain Physiological adaptations. In the nutrient growth period, the requirements of cool temperatures, medium intensity light, loose, fertile, water retention soil, lower air humidity, higher soil moisture, and show cold, moisture, fertilizer characteristics, intolerance of high temperatures, strong light, drought and barren. High temperature and long sunshine when entering the dormant period.
Onions for food parts of the underground fat bulb (i.e., onion head). According to its skin color can be divided into white skin, yellow skin and red skin three kinds: white skin species bulb small, white or slightly green appearance, tender flesh, juicy spicy leaf light, good quality, suitable for raw food.
Nationals are often afraid of its unique spicy aroma, but abroad it is known as the "Queen of Vegetables", the nutritional value is not low.
Onion quality requirements: onion fat, shiny skin, not rotten, no mechanical injury and soil, fresh onion head without leaves; after storage, not flabby, not moss, scales tight, less water, spicy and sweet flavor for the best.
