Apply gypsum (calcium sulfate) at 400-500 kg/ha at pegging stage — calcium is essential for pod fill and deficiency causes empty or poorly filled shells.
Groundnuts fix atmospheric nitrogen via Bradyrhizobium, so skip nitrogen fertilizer — excess N promotes foliage over pod development.
Harvest when 70-80% of pods show internal darkening of the shell lining — delayed harvest increases aflatoxin risk and pod shattering losses.
Dry pods to below 8% moisture within 48 hours of harvest to prevent Aspergillus flavus contamination and aflatoxin production.
Rotate with cereals (sorghum, millet) and avoid following groundnut with groundnut — this breaks leaf spot and soil-borne disease cycles.
Sandy loam soils are ideal because pods must penetrate the soil after pegging — heavy clay soils restrict peg entry and cause misshapen pods.
Groundnut typically takes 120 days from planting to harvest. Seeds germinate in about 7 days. The best planting season is spring, early summer.
Groundnut grows best in sandy loam, loam, well-drained sandy soil with a pH of 5.5-7. Excellent drainage is required.
Groundnut grows best at 25-35°C. Frost tolerance: none. Heat tolerance: high.
Groundnut yields approximately 1,800 kg unshelled/hectare under good conditions.
