Sesame Cultivation - 0.25 shilling
This stamp depicts the cultivation of sesame, one of Somalia's traditional crops and an important source of edible oil. Sesame has been cultivated in the Horn of Africa for centuries and is prized for its nutritional value, drought resistance, and commercial potential.
As part of a series promoting Somalia's agricultural resources, the stamp emphasizes the role of farming in the nation's economy and rural communities. Sesame exports provided income for many producers, while the crop itself supported local food production. The issue reflects national efforts to encourage agricultural growth and highlight the diversity of Somalia's farming sector.
