Red Peanut seed

LATIN NAME: ARACHIS HYPOGAEA

COMMON NAME: Peanut

The peanut burrows the low, branching annual with the four leaflets of the compound leaves and the small, yellow, pea-like flowers that open along the stems through the warm season, the fertilised stalks then bending down and burrowing into the soil, the rough, veined pods forming underground, each pod holding the one or two rich seeds. The plant grows quickly and stands the heat well. It likes the sun, and the light, sandy, well-drained soil.

Scientific Research & Plant Biotechnology

The underground ripening of the peanut fruits gives it a long place in the research on the warm-season oilseed legumes of the pea family, and the hypogaea species appears in the studies of the stalk-burrowing habit and the seed oil and protein chemistry. The work looks at the way the fertilised stalks bend down, the soil-building roots, and the seed biology. The food scientists value the rich kernels, and the growers of the warm-season legume crops keep the species in their catalogues.

Ecological & Economic Value & Wide Applications

In the warm garden, the peanut burrows the summer garden with the hidden pods. The kernels serve the snacks, the butters and the oils for the ages, the yellow flowers open for the bees, and the roots enrich the soil. It grows well in the light, sandy, well-drained, sunny ground. Burrow-podded, rich and soil-feeding.

To grow the Peanut from seed, sow the seeds into the warm, loose drills of the open bed, then cover them well, keep the drills moist, and the seedlings rise within a week or two.

Keep the drills moist, and thin the seedlings to the roomy spacing. The burrow pods come within the season. Let the young plants grow on in the sunny, sandy ground, and the burrow pods will fill under the soil through the season.
