Groundnut/Peanuts Seeds

The groundnut is otherwise known as peanut and is scientifically called Arachis hypogaea. Though termed as a nut these are not nuts but legumes which are rich sources of protein.

Indian peanuts are cultivated over an acreage of 31 million hectares – roughly the size of Nigeria.

Indian peanuts are consumed in over 50 countries. Indian peanuts are the only source that are available all-round the year. Crops are planted in two cycles and harvested in March and October. There are several other inter-cropping cycles which makes Indian peanut a prime source of supply.

Recent quality drive in the Indian peanut industry by APEDA have started resulting in good practices in food safety & the control of aflatoxin.
