How to determine the sowing rate of sesame
(Agricultural Wealth Network) The sowing rate of sesame is related to soil fertility, fertilizer application rate, management level, and the branching habit of the variety, sowing time, planned density, planting method, and so on. Calculated at a seed emergence rate of 70%, and with the final stand calculated at 20% of the emerged seedlings, the sowing rate per mu is 0.3 kg for broadcasting, 0.4 kg for drilling, and 0.2 kg for dibbling. If autumn sowing encounters drought and there is insufficient soil moisture, the sowing rate can be appropriately increased. For all sowing methods, the seeds must be sown evenly to achieve a full stand; otherwise, increasing the sowing rate will be of no help.
