In Northern Nigeria (where most of the nation’s sesame seeds are produced), the seed is harvested twice annually (August and October). One of the factors responsible for sesame seed’s popularity is the numerous uses it serves. For instance, it is a very good source of vegetable oil that contains no cholesterol, thus making it the most demanded vegetable oil in the world. Sesame Oil Cake/Oil Meal is also very important to Nigeria’s agricultural export sector, with the country being one of the highest sesame seed producing countries in the world. The sesame plant has a very drought-resistant nature, in fact, excessive rain can adversely affect the yield. This explains why it thrives excellently in the Northern part of the country and averagely in some parts of Southern Nigeria.
