Recent developments in the Philippine onion industry include investments on cold storage facilities to abate postharvest losses and to provide farmers an option to increase their profit. Considering that onion is a highly seasonal crop, farmers may benefit from storing their harvest by selling in another time period when prices are higher. While previous studies showed that adoption of storage technology has resulted into additional net income, farmers are unable to capitalize this opportunity due to several barriers. Thus, this study examined the factors that are associated with the likelihood of using cold storage technology. Binary logit analysis was used to identify the factors that determine cold storage use. A total of 169 farmers are randomly selected using stratified random sampling. Farmers who are reliant on financiers serve as an impediment in practicing onion storage. Farmers who are engaged in trading, have stored onion previously, are members of a cooperative, and have attended training on postharvest management are more likely to use the cold storage facility.
