1995
Hernandez P, P.
Planting date and sowing system effects on sesame seed oil content, were evaluated at UCV Experimental Station San Nicolas Portuguesa State, during dry season 90-91 on a Typic Ustifluvents silky soil. Compound samples for planting date and sowing system were taken and results of two labs were analized. According to Friedman test of two ways, no statistical differencies were detected, elsewhere, marked tendency and magnitude of degree of oil content difference showed that the flat system had a higher seed oil content. The earlier planting date, specially the second one, had a higher seed oil content. The oil content dropped on the date. Results suggest a hard effect of soil water content on sesame seed oil content, since higher oil content was asociated to system and planting date related to higher soil water content. Close relation between yield and seed oil content was observed.
