Synopsis "Sesame Cultivation"

"Open Sesame" is a widely used expression around the world that refers to gaining access to hidden treasures. The expression derives from the behavior of the sesame plant, which reveals its value when its fruits or capsules open, releasing their inner riches-the seeds-which are highly valuable in themselves and have the potential to generate even greater value through the extraction of oil of excellent nutritional quality. This book condenses several years of the author's research experience on sesame cultivation, as well as a thorough review of current knowledge on the crop worldwide. Its 100 pages discuss primarily agronomic aspects of the crop, ranging from genetic improvement to harvest, covering important topics such as mineral nutrition and pests and diseases, while also addressing the economic foundations of the crop, including the current state of the global market, as well as a brief section on agro-industrial processing. One hundred thirty-four bibliographic references will allow the reader to expand their knowledge on specific topics.
