India loses 70000 crore worth of crop in storage. Onion is one such crop, where India is the producer, with more than 3 crores MT of onions every year. Of this 70-80% produce is stored in the warehouses for a period of 6-8 months, where wastage of is close to 40-50% impacting the demand supply ecosystem of the crop value chain; When we studied the onion value chain, we discovered the root cause was unscientific storage structure and outdated storage practices. This led to poor hold time leading to: (a) supply gap in the value chain and (b) selling at suboptimal prices in the market to sell the produce as quickly as possible.
