Here’s the latest on Maharashtra's onion production policy :

  • Nuclear Energy-Based Storage: The Maharashtra government is setting up nuclear energy based onion irradiation and storage centers along the Samruddhi Expressway. This initiative aims to reduce post-harvest losses and stabilize prices for farmers
  • Export Duty Removal: The central government has recently withdrawn the 20% export duty on onions, effective April 1, 2025. This move is expected to provide relief to onion farmers in Maharashtra, especially in key producing regions like Lasalgaon and Pimpalgaon
  • Increased Production: The rabi onion production for 2025 is estimated to reach 22.7 million tonnes, an 18% increase from the previous year. This higher output is anticipated to stabilize market prices and ensure supply until the next harvest.

The pungency, quality and sweetness of Maharashtra Onions, is legendary and unique. Maharashtra Onions come in many different varieties, however it is safe to say that Maharshtra Onion, is a premium export crop and farm produce of India for many valid reasons.

This is due to the centrality of Bombay Onions as a raw farm product, and a produce of Maharashtra farmers or Shetkari, in numerous cuisines around the world.

The centrality of Maharashtra Onions, colloquially also known as Bombay Onion is known to chefs serving up great food round the world.

The name BombayOnion is a misnomer though, as the onions are grown on a large scale, not in Bombay or Mumbai City, but in fact, in certain farming belts of Maharashtra, of which Bombay or Mumbai, merely happens to be the state capital.

However, as Bombay also happens to be a major sea port and loading port, for Indian Farm Produce, since colonial times, the name of BombayOnion is a colloquial invention, that has stuck in many consumer markets, and importing regions, like United Kingdom and in Europe, where warm Indian Curries have become key part of the restaurant trade and the Night Dine Out Industry in European Capitals.

The motivation for the BombayOnion.co.uk Website is to promote the advocacy and championing of Maharashtra Onions online and around the world.

The crop deserves a stable export policy from Indian policy makers and agriculture experts, not only for reasons of retaining global market share, but also because the Maharashtra Shetkari has perfected the art of growing the best onions to be found in the world, and is financially dependant to a great level on a stable commodity policy and pricing framework.
