Abstract
Objective of this study is to determine spatial variability in a dry onion field and to produce a management strategy which is based on spatial variability of yield and soil components. The onion field properties were determined and given in maps. Soil samples were taken to determine properties of soil such as pH, salt, humidity, CaCO3, organic matter, total N, Zn, Fe, P2O5, Ca+Mg, K, texture. Longitudinal slope was also measured. Results were used to produce maps. Most percentage of the field soils was determined as clay-loam. Small part of the field was loam. Yield of dry onion decreased by increasing of Organic Matter, Total Nitrogen, Iron, and Zinc in the field according to the related maps. Relationship between yield and phosphorous, CaCO3, Ca+Mg and salt was positive according to the related maps.
