THE COMPANY OUR PARTNERS POTATO GARLIC SHALLOT ONION Shallot seed cultivation Soil preparation: Shallots do well in light, sandy soil. It fears fresh manure and, during maturity, humidity. It must be provided with correct compost and natural fertilizers. Culture : Planting is carried out from October until January for the gray shallot. For the other varieties, they should be planted between February and March, except the Tunisian shallot, which is planted in April, when the temperature is milder. It is recommended to space the cloves 12 to 15 cm apart on the line as well as to separate the lines by 25 cm minimum. If the soil is wet, cultivation can be done on ridges (small mounds of earth). The harvest: The harvest is usually done during the month of July, until the beginning of August, when the leaves are completely dry. The feet should be torn off and left to dry for 1 to 2 days outside, on the ground, except in rainy weather. For storage, it is advisable to place them on a shelf in a dry and cool place. Insects and diseases The fly plays a harmful role because its larva, appearing between mid-April and the end of May, eats the heart of the pods, rotting thereafter. To remedy this problem, it is necessary to water 3 times a week with a decoction of tansy during the aforementioned period as well as to tear up and burn the contaminated plans because the larvae move throughout the culture. Shallots are vulnerable to bacterial diseases, pink root, white rot, downy mildew, purple spot and thrips. To avoid or mitigate these problems, do not plant shallots in soil that has been used in previous years for the cultivation of other plants of the genus Allium, only plant clean and healthy seedlings or cloves, and observe good hygiene. . Fat is also a disease of shallots, the leaves turn yellow and the bulbs rot during vegetation. The solution is only preventive and consists in respecting a good crop rotation and outlawing fresh manure.
