Ø Groundnuts are important protein crops in India which are mostly grown
under rainfed conditions.
Ø Peanuts are consumed either roasted or fried and salted.
Ø Groundnut contains about 45% oil and 20% protein. As a whole, peanuts are
highly digestible.
Ø Groundnut oil is famous for its use in human diet and Gujarati people
consume it as other food.
Ø The oil cake obtained after extraction of oil is a valuable organic manure
and animal feed. It contains 7-8% N, 1.5% P2O5 and 1.5% K2O.
Ø It is a good rotation crop. Being legume it builds soil fertility by fixing
atmospheric nitrogen through root, bales which add about 12 to 40 kg N/ha and
is an efficient cover crop for the land. also work as
