Even though the news of heavy rain causing damage to the crop in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh has not affected the price of the seeds.

Furthermore, Tanzania and Mozambique have already fulfilled their demand in the international market. China consumes little quantity from Sudan’s sesame seed market. Nigeria will be bringing its new products to the market around October November.
Pakistan is likely to produce between 10 and 12 thousand tons of sesame seed this year, and they are likely to sell at $1,07 to $1,12 per kg.
