Popular in cuisines around the world, sesame is the oldest domesticated oilseed crop, having been cultivated for over 5000 years - mainly in India and Africa. Known as a survivor crop, it can grow in monsoon or drought conditions where other plants fail. It also has one of the highest oil contents of any seed, and these oils were an early export from civilisations in the Indus Valley to others in Mesopotamia.
