Carrots: their complementary growth helps repel certain harmful insects, such as flies.
Beets: these two crops can be grown side by side, as they improve soil health.
Tomatoes: BELAMI onion can be grown with tomatoes, as the onion repels certain pests and delays the onset of fungal diseases.

Stemphylium blight, caused by the fungus Stemphylium vesicarium, is a dreaded disease of onion crops. It can lead to yield losses, especially in climatic conditions that favor its development.
Symptoms
Typical signs of stemphylium blight in onions include:
➔ At first, the spots are small, pale yellow and moist. They become elliptical, pale brown to purple in the center, often surrounded by a purple halo.
➔ Progressive necrosis of leaves, which begin to dry out as they move toward the apex.
➔ Premature leaf drop, compromising bulb development and keeping quality.
Factors favoring the disease
Stemphylian blight develops particularly well under the following conditions:
➔ High relative humidity (>80%) due to watering, dew or frequent rainfall.
➔ Moderate temperatures (18-25°C), which accelerate the spread of the fungus.
➔ Hydric or nutritional stress on plants, making them more vulnerable to infection.
Control and prevention strategies
To protect onion crops from stemphylian blight:
➔ Choose varieties that are resistant or tolerant to the disease.
➔ Remove and bury crop residues.
➔ Monitor humidity by spacing watering and promoting good drainage.
➔ Apply specific fungicides, especially during periods of high humidity.
➔ Avoid wounds on leaves, which can serve as an entry point for the fungus.
➔ Carry out crop rotation with non-susceptible crops to limit the presence of the fungus in the soil.
