“…Hailemariam [6] reported that the north-west of Ethiopia, Humera plains, had very low NP content compared to moderately fertile soils [7,8]. Many researchers have shown that sesame is very responsive to nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers [9][10][11][12][13][14]. However, there are no published fertilizer recommendations for the local sesame variety grown in Northern Ethiopia, Humera.…”

The impact of fertilizer of N and P on the yield of sesame in north-western Ethiopia was investigated. Field experiments were conducted in 2010 and 2011. Six levels of urea and six levels of di-ammonium phosphate were applied using a factorial completely randomized block design. Application of N and P increased the plant height, the number of capsules plant−1, and the yield ha−1. The number of days to flower decreased with increasing rates of nitrogen. The number of days to maturity was largest (91 days) at a rate of 23 kg N ha−1. Applying 92 kg N ha−1 resulted in a yield of 917.8 kg ha−1 and a plant height of 104 cm. An application of 92 kg P ha−1 with 36 Kg N ha−1 gave a yield of 908 kg ha−1 and a plant height of 103.4 cm. The interaction between N and P significantly affected the number of days to flower, plant height, the number of capsules plant−1, and yield ha−1. Applying 128 kg N ha−1 and 92 kg P ha−1 gave the biggest yield (1043 kg ha−1). However, application of 41 kg N ha−1 and 46 kg P ha−1 gave the largest marginal rate of return.

“…Research in this area has resulted decreased levels of undesirable long-chain fatty acids. Another beneficial change in fatty acid composition would be an increase in the linoleic and oleic acid contents [7]. Therefore, the aims of this experiment were to find out the effect of sowing dates and nitrogen levels on fatty acid composition of sesame cultivars at the agroclimatic condition of Peshawar.…”
