Context and Rationale

                           The genera Allium includes hundreds of species that
                          are cultivated worldwide for consumption as well as
                        ornamental purposes. Commercially important edible
                    alliums are onion, garlic, leek shallot, chive etc. Among all
             cultivated species onion and garlic are exclusively grown and
consumed in the form of fresh, processed products and in value added forms
.They are known to have great medicinal properties which are used to cure
wide variety of human disorders. At global level, current onion production is to
the tune of 88.47 million tonns and that of garlic 24.93 million tons. India is
second largest producer of onion and garlic in the world with production of
20.93 and 1.62 million tons, coming from 1.32 million and 0.28 million hectares
area, respectively. The productivity of long day onions range between 60 to 100
tonns/ha, while that of short day onion between 10 to 50 tons/ha. Productivity
of temperate garlic is between 20 to 40 tons/ha, while that of subtropical short
day garlic ranges between 4 to 15 tons/ha.

With the increasing population worldwide and change in pattern of food habit,
the demand for onion and garlic and other species is increasing. There is hardly
any scope for horizontal growth of these commodities as other food and
commercial crops compete for area. The world challenge is with vertical
growth by enhancing productivity and availability through scientific and high-
tech innovations. Scientists worldwide are engaged in developing better
genotypes resistant to biotic and abiotic stresses. Reduction in yield due to
foliar diseases, pest, climatic aberrations, suboptimal management practises
are the major issues, besides average and poor genotypes. High storage losses
reduce the net availability of these commodities. Fluctuations in demand and
supply greatly affect the trade and farmer income. Thus challenges and
constraints are many to be addressed for enhancing and sustaining enhanced
productivity. In order to address the challenges and issues, in depth

deliberations to analyse past developments and plan for future among
scientists, policy makers, traders, farmers, regulatory authorities and other
stakeholders are highly essential.

Indian society of Alliums in collaborations with ICAR–Directorate of Onion and
Garlic Research, Rajgurunagar, Pune has planned to organize “International
Symposium on Edible Alliums: Challenges and Opportunities” during 9-12

Administration, Pune (Maharashtra). The symposium is designed to provide
common forum for discussion to researchers, students, farmers, policy
makers, traders, seeds men to share their views on recent developments,
challenges and mitigation strategies.

     Themes
The symposium will be organized in following broad themes:
