Thank you Eric. This has been very insightful. I am from Ghana and I intend to go into sesame farming this year.
@@latiflawrencejorhowie92 You're warmly welcome, wishing you all the best!
Really, you have provided a very informative detail, and where to local farmers secure their markets.
Thank you in advance, God bless you you are so conversant with the crop.
Thank you so much!
Where do local farmers sells their sesame.... Are there some companies specifically for buying them? Kindly lead me sir.
Company hire middlemen to collect the sesame in the field to reach a certain volume and there's auction market for sesame too, where buyers and companies bid the price per kg.
Realistically speaking, and considering all factors. Lets say as an example Uncle Joe has 10 acres of land. How many laborers does it require from start to finish and what will be his profit per acre if he can have 400kg yield per acre at a selling price of $1.18 p kg
Taking all factors into account, with an average yield of 3,000 kg from 10 acres, a production cost of Tsh 4,000,000, and an average selling price of Tsh 3,000 per kg (totaling Tsh 9,000,000 in sales), the profit amounts to Tsh 5,000,000. This results in a Return on Investment (ROI) of 125%.

Cost of production differ, however you can get 200kg - 300kg/acre in a regular basis, with GAP some farmers(big )have recorded the high yield of 300kg-600kg/acre. From the experience of last year farmers sold 1kg to 1.18 $.
Do you apply fertilizer?
Manure before planting and then Booster fertilizer at the flowering stage!
WHat do you mean by booster fertilizer sir , could you please recommend a certain booster fertilizer ??
Better to be organic fertilizer
Pls which herbicide can i use for weeding Sesame
Pre-emergency herbicide that works better!
@@ERICKKUMARI Can you recommend one for me
First of all you should clear understand what is Pre-emergence herbicide ? When we say pre-emegency herbicide we refers to the type of herbicide applied to soil before weed seeds germinate. Therefore we apply this pre-emegency herbicide (Roundup/Glysophate) after the seed crops have been planted.
For sesame once you plant you will need to apply herbicide right away and not more than 3 days. Because after that the seeds expected to be germinated so the herbicide once it contact with shoot, it will kill everything! Here timing is everything otherwise you will kill all the plant, I mean you will kill all the plant once the herbicide touch or contact the shoot or leaves.
Precautions
For sesame crops, it's essential to apply this pre-emergency herbicide immediately after planting and within three days at most. Once the seeds are sown, any delay beyond this timeframe risks germination, making the herbicide lethal to the emerging shoots and leaves upon contact. Timing is paramount in herbicide application to ensure effective weed management without harming the desired plants.

Average
Average yield ? If it's yield with our production is around 400-600 kg per acre!
China buys an enormous % of Tanzanian sesame oil, and China is collapsing. Demand for sesame has fallen off a cliff and this guy knows it.
Sesame has a booming global demand, with potential buyers from diverse markets like China , America, Europe and with Africa both showing keen interest.
@@ERICKKUMARI which is why about 8 months ago here in Tanzania, suddenly it was showing up in used water bottles for half the regular price .
Now it's literally everywhere, market flooded bc china isn't buying.
@@MichaelYates-u7cmmmh every where there was sesame oil in water bottle??? I don't know that "every where" In Tanzania represent where. Coz never saw it.
