Abstract
A Study was conducted using four storage environments and packing methods. After four months storage lossed were evaluated alongwith economics of storage. Top and bottam ventitated storage gave lowest physiological loss in weight (19.08%) and minimum bulb rotting (7.52%). Highest storage losses (54.77%) in traditional storage. Top and bottam ventilated storage was most economic (Rs. 2,459/t).
