The sesame crop has aroused, in recent years, the interest of new producers and rural entrepreneurs in the Brazilian Center-West, with emphasis on the micro-regions of Mato Grosso North and Middle Araguaia and Middle North, as an alternative for profitable cultivation that can be used in rotation and/or succession of crops, mainly with soybeans. Thus, producers in the state identified a great business opportunity in sesame, combined with favorable conditions for the development of the crop with the use of varieties adapted to local conditions, tolerant to diseases and with greater productive potential. In the state of Mato Grosso, sesame has found a favorable climate, flat land allowing the mechanization of farming in all stages of the production process. In addition, due to its tolerance to drought and ease of cultivation, it has a high agronomic potential and can be used in rotation and succession of traditional crops in the region, especially in the off-season. Due to its broad edaphoclimatic adaptability and the growth of the Pulses producer market in Brazil and special crops, present in international markets, especially in China and India, the market for sesame agribusiness and the state of Mato Grosso is extensive is the main national producer and exporter of this culture. Due to this scenario, this production chain has demanded technological innovations that are essential for the management of the crop in the conditions of cultivation in the state on a large scale. Thus, the objective of this project is to develop and improve technical indexes that make up the sesame production system, aiming at high productivity and profitability and that provide the highlight of this oilseed in agriculture in the state of Mato Grosso.
