摘要：Onion production is an agricultural activity whose yield is associated with environmental, market and cultural management factors. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cost of onion production as a function of the tillage system adopted and the soil water content at the moment of the operations. Three tillage systems were evaluated: P1 - one plowing + two harrowings + two seedbed raising operations; P2 - two harrowings + one seedbed raising operation; P3 - one harrowing + one seedbed raising operation; and four soil water contents: 12, 15, 23 and 26%, in experiment conducted at the Tourão irrigated perimeter, Juazeiro, BA, Brazil (9° 24’ 07.3” S; 40° 26’ 08.7” W, and altitude of 376 m), in 2017, in split plots, in a randomized block design, with four repetitions. The costs related to mechanized operations, manual operations, inputs and crop irrigation were determined. The economic efficiency was evaluated through the variables total cost and unit cost of onion production, gross revenue, net revenue and internal rate of return. The use of the tillage system with one harrowing, one seedbed raising operation and seeding, under the condition of 23% soil water content, resulted in higher economic efficiency.
