Valuable properties of oil crops
Sesame is also among the crops grown en masse in the north of Turkmenistan. It was placed here, like last year, on 350 hectares. Farmers of the region intend to get at least 10 centners of the harvest from each of them. They value oil crops for a short growing season, which makes it possible to use it in crop rotation, when sesame is placed after winter wheat and some other plants. Sesame is thermophilic and reacts well to fertilizers. It is rich in antioxidants, amino acids, proteins and vitamins and surpasses even olive oil in the content of individual components. Experts believe it contains more calcium than most foods.

The silk rainbow of keteni
This year, 2,100 tons of silkworm cocoons were produced in Turkmenistan - a valuable raw material for one of the leading branches of the domestic agricultural industry, which has a long history and traditions. Since ancient times, Turkmens were engaged in silkworm breeding and made clothes from silk, decorated them with silk embroidery. Clothes made of natural silk, which are warm in winter and cool in summer, were highly valued. Silk threads were also used in carpet weaving in the manufacture of especially delicate and elegant products. Silk imparted colorful tints to ancient carpet designs, transforming carpets into magnificent examples of high art.
