在去年9月上、中旬,笔者对东北三省的芝麻生产进行了初步调查。通过座谈和实地考察,深感东北地区的芝麻生产形势喜人,种植面积得到了迅速地恢复和发展。东北三省的芝麻面积最高曾达83.35万亩(1951年),但到1976年播种面积下降到不足10万亩,黑龙江省几乎绝迹。从1977年开始,种植面积开始回升,1980年种植面积达到20万亩。 In September last year, mid, the author conducted a preliminary investigation of sesame production in the three northeastern provinces. Through discussions and field trips, we are deeply convinced that the production of sesame seeds in Northeast China is gratifying and the planting area has been rapidly restored and developed. The highest sesame area in the three northeastern provinces reached 83.35 million mu (1951), but the sown area in 1976 dropped to less than 10 million mu. Heilongjiang Province almost disappeared. Beginning in 1977, the acreage began to rebound. In 1980, the acreage reached 200,000 mu.
