A comparative assessment is very important tool in knowing the condition of the farmer`s practice in their farm and to compare the researcher`s practice on how it varies in terms of its operation and productivity. It is also a good idea to assess in a commercial scope of production such as vegetable, fruits and other commodities. This study aimed to assess, compare and give recommendations to the farmers the recommended practice of onion commercial production. This was possible through a survey conducted, assess and compare the two management practices of growing onion crops by the researcher and the farmers. A survey on onion growing areas in Brgy. San Fransisco in Sto. Domingo was done to determine the difference between the research-managed and farmer-managed in terms of its farm management and productivity. The results of the survey revealed that researcher`s technologies have done for a long time therefore it needs some verification to update the information. However, it is still useful to have a guide as basis for the improvement of the technology either in the farmers` side and to the researcher`s end. Therefore, for a successful adoption of the technology, it is very important that it should be tested first in the specific locality before recommending it to the farmers or the farmer should do the experiment in a small portion of the farm before doing it in commercial plantation
