Onions\n(scientific name: Allium cepa) are one of the oldest edible vegetables in the\nworld and Iran. This crop was cultivated in Egypt three thousand years B.C. and\naccording to some documents, workers who used to build the Egyptian pyramids\nwere used onions as staple food. The onion belongs to the Alliaceae family and\nis a two-year-old plant with weak bush growth and hollow cylindrical leaves. The\nleaves are yellowish-green and grow in a narrow flat row, alternate in shape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important environmental factors affecting bulb formation are temperature and day length. Accordingly, onion cultivars are divided into three groups: long-day, mid-day and short-day. The importance of this is in determining when to plant. For example, long-day varieties such as red onions are usually planted in April. In the fall, the leaves disappear and the outer shell of the onion becomes dry and crisp, typically harvested at this time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Historical use<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Historians are\nbelieved that onions have been a food source for thousands of years. In the\nBronze Age habitats, traces of onion remnants were found alongside the date\npalm and fig nucleus, dating back to 5000 years B.C. However, they aren\u2019t sure\nthat these were planted onions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Archaeological\nevidence, affirms that onions were probably planted in ancient Egypt about 2000\nyears ago, along with leeks and garlic. The workers who made the Egyptian\npyramids probably ate radishes and onions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Onions are simply propagated, transported and stored. The ancient Egyptians worshiped it and believed that spherical shapes and concentric rings symbolized eternal life.

In the Middle Ages, in Europe onions were on the side of cabbage and beans, one of the main vegetable foods of the poor and rich. It was also prescribed for the treatment of headache, snakebite, and onion hair loss. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Large-scale\ncultivation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Onions grow better in fertile, well-drained soil. Clay and sand mixed with decaying plants are good for cultivation onions because of having low sulfur, while clay soils usually contain high sulfur content and produce spicy onions.
