  1. The effects of ecological inputs (superabsorbent polymer, humic acid) for cooperating to sesame efficiency for producing fatty oil was examined conducting structural equation modeling
  2. This study suggests a method to produce agrochemical-free products also improved qualitative and quantitative yield of sesame especially for marginal farmers with low input systems
