What is the Seed rate required for sesame farming?

Seed rate depends on sowing method, variety of seed and season. In broadcasting method, under rain fed conditions seed rate would be 6 kg/hectare, under irrigated conditions 5 kg/hectare. In row seeding, under rain fed condition seed rate would be 5 kg/hectare, under irrigated condition 4 kg/hectare. If sesame is cultivated as intercrop, seed rate would be 1 kg/hectare.
