Eastern Agriculture Completes Sesame Harvest
The sesame harvest in Al-Sharqiya Governorate has been completed after cultivation on an area of 18,000 feddans across various districts. The plants are 120 days old, and they are planted between mid-April and the end of May. Sesame is considered a valuable economic crop, with prices ranging from 90 to 100 Egyptian pounds per kilogram. Each feddan yields approximately 60,000 Egyptian pounds in income, producing between 500 and 600 kilograms per feddan. Sesame is cultivated for its high oil content (50-60%) and protein (25-30%). It is known for not exhausting the soil and is used in oil production and confectionery. The harvest is done manually after the pods are dried, with special methods employed to ensure the quality and ripeness of the crop.
