Environment

Cultivation conditions

E1

1- First environment: Optimal irrigation with high rainfall (38.6 mm) during the stages: Germination; Emergence, Seedling: 3rd pair true leaf length = 2nd, Juvenile; First buds (approximately the first month of the sesame growing season) and then a total rainfall of 16.9 mm until the ripening stage (approximately the remaining three months of the growing season).

E2

2- Second environment: low irrigation with high rainfall (38.6 mm) during the stages: Germination; Emergence, seedlings: 3rd pair of true leaf length = 2nd, Juvenile; First buds (approximately the first month of the sesame growing season) and then a total rainfall of 16.9 mm until the ripening stage (approximately the remaining three months of the growing season).

E3

Third environment: Optimal irrigation with very low rainfall (0.7 mm) during the stages: Germination; Emergence, Seedling: 3rd pair true leaf length = 2nd, Juvenile; First buds (approximately the first month of the sesame growing season) and then a total rainfall of 52.4 mm until the maturity stage (approximately the remaining three months of the growing season).

E4

Fourth environment: low irrigation with very low rainfall (0.7 mm) during the stages: Germination; Emergence, Seedling: 3rd pair true leaf length = 2nd, Juvenile; First buds (approximately the first month of the sesame growing season) and then a total rainfall of 52.4 mm until the maturity stage (approximately the remaining three months of the growing season).
