Abstract

Objective: Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) seed is a high-quality oil plant with high oleic, linoleic fatty acid composition and sesamol content. However, due to the morphological and physiological characteristics combine harvesting are almost impossible in Turkey. The objective of our experiment was to determine the oil content and fatty acid composition of sesame semi-mechanized harvesting in main and second crop growing conditions.

Materials and methods: This study was conducted at the experimental area of Eastern Mediterranean Agricultural Research Institute, Adana in Turkey. Semi-mechanized harvest and traditional harvest were a randomized block design with 4 replications for 2 years as a main and second crop growing conditions

Results and conclusion: At the end of the study, it was determined that the semi-mechanized harvest had not negative effect on oil and fatty acid composition. It was observed that reaper-binder (semi-mechanized method) could be practicable for sesame harvesting in Turkey.

Yarı Mekanik Hasat Yönteminin Susam Yağ İçeriği ve Yağ Bileşimi Üzerindeki Etkisi

Abstract

Amaç: Susam (Sesamum indicum L.), yüksek oleik, linoleik yağ asidi bileşimi ve sesamol içeriğine sahip yüksek kaliteli bir yağ bitkisidir. Ancak, morfolojik ve fizyolojik özelliklerinden dolayı Türkiye'de biçerdöver ile hasat etmek neredeyse imkansızdır. Bu çalışmada, yarı mekanize ve geleneksel hasat yöntemlerinin ana ve ikinci ürün koşullarında yağ ve yağ asitleri açısından etkisinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır.

Materyal ve Yöntem: Denemeler, Türkiye’de Doğu akdeniz Tarımsal Araştırma Enstitüsü’nün deneme alanlarında yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada, 2 yıl süresince 4 tekrarlı olarak tesadüf blokları deneme desenine göre yarı mekanize ve geleneksel hasat yöntemleri ana ve ikinci ürün koşullarında karşılaştırılmıştır.

Bulgular ve Sonuç: Çalışmanın sonunda yarı mekanize hasadın yağ ve yağ asidi kompozisyonu üzerinde olumsuz bir etkisi olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Biçerbağların (yarı mekanize yöntem) susam hasadında kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
