  • How much oil is produced from Sesame?
  • Global oil production [214 Million Metric Tons (MMT)] from sesame (5.5 MMT) lags behind groundnut, soybean, rapeseed, sunflower, and linseed. 2 By 2030, sesame oil consumption is estimated to be approximately 100 MMT globally ( Troncoso-Ponce et al., 2011 ).
  • Why is sesame consumption increasing globally?
  • Sesame consumption is increasing globally due to changes in consumer lifestyle and health awareness programs. Sesame seed consumption will reach approximately $7,245 million by the end of 2024 (∼$6,559 million in 2018). 1 Globally, the total annual sesame consumption as food and oil is approximately 35 and 65%, respectively.
  • Which countries produce the most sesame oil in the world?
  • This growth is attributed to factors such as rising demand for sesame oil and improved farming practices. Asia has supplied most of the world's sesame for the past 60 years (Fig. 2). But since 2012, Africa has been the top producer, with 56.8% of global production (FAOSTAT 2024).
  • How has global sesame production changed over the past 60 years?
  • In the past 60 years, global sesame production has substantially increased, with Asia and Africa being the primary producers. The integration of omics technologies and biotechnological interventions has revolutionized our understanding of the genetic basis of sesame, enhanced productivity, invigorated stress resilience, and improved seed quality.
