Farmers of Dashoguz province have planned to harvest 560 tons of sesame this year. This is reported by the Internet edition "Turkmenistan: The Golden Age."
Farmers of Kunyaurgench etrap, S. Turkmenbashi etrap and Akdepi etrap are the leaders of sesame production in the velayat - more than 400 tons of the crop from the total plan of the velayat will be produced here.
Sesame shows high yields under local weather and climatic conditions - the crop needs a lot of sunlight and less water compared to other plants. High yields are achieved by applying fertilizers and timely irrigation according to agronomic norms.
Sesame seeds are highly nutritious, with a pleasant flavor and a healthy array of trace elements. The seeds can be used for cooking dishes such as pilaf and white halva, and sesame oil is widely used in medicine and cosmetology.
