Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during the 2015 growing season from March to July to determine the N and P rates for optimum yield, growth and quality of onion (Allium cepa L.), a factorial combination of two rates of N (0&50kg ha-1) and two rates of P (0&75 kg ha-1) were used for the experiment. Treatments were laid down in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) in a factorial combination with three replications. The result of this study revealed that the application of nitrogen showed significant effects in most of studied characters while P fertilization and the interaction effect N and P did not.
