  • Why is the Sesame sector better organized in Mali than Senegal?
  • The sesame sector is better organized in Mali, which positively impacts on the seasonal production and yield of sesame. As a result, a farmer¡¯s total income from sesame production is higher in Mali than in Senegal. This implies that the sesame sector is more developed in Mali, which should lead to the rapid development of the sector.
  • Which country produces the most sesame seeds?
  • Africa is the world¡¯s leading continent in sesame seed production, with Sudan being the leading producer country in Africa [6]. Its seeds have one of the highest oil contents (~ 55%) among major oilseed crops [7]. Beyond the traditional use of direct consumption, sesame seeds have diverse applications [8].
  • Is there a compound fertilizer for Sesame production in West Africa?
  • There is no compound fertilizer that has been tailored for sesame production in West Africa¡¯s Sahel. Further research is required for the formulation of a compound fertilizer optimized for sesame production in this area.
  • Could sesame be a cash crop in West Africa?
  • In West Africa's Sahel region, sesame production faces the main challenge of lack of reliable markets and considerable price fluctuations for seed marketing. However, the sesame sector is progressively developing, and sesame could become an important cash crop for smallholders. In both Senegal and Mali, this is the case.
