Malaysia on track to reduce dependency on imported red onions

KUALA LUMPUR. Malaysia is on the right track to reduce its dependence on imported red onions, says Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu.

The Agriculture and Food Securities Minister said this follows the success of the Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (Mardi) in producing three varieties of red onions, namely BAW-1, BAW-2 and BAW-3 last year.
