It is an annual herbaceous plant growing 30 to 50 cm (1.0 to 1.6 ft) tall. The leaves are opposite, pinnate with four leaflets (two opposite pairs; no terminal leaflet), each leaflet 1 to 7 cm (⅜ to 2¾ inch) long and 1 to 3 cm (⅜ to 1 inch) broad. Groundnut are known by many other local names such as peanut, earthnut, goober peas, monkey nut, pygmy nut and pignut. Despite its name and appearance, groundnut is not a nut, but rather a species in the legume or “bean” family. Groundnuts are rich in essential nutrients which are potential to provide health benefits. Groundnut gives 570 calories per 100 g serving and are an excellent source of several B vitamins; vitamin E; dietary minerals, such as manganese (95% DV), magnesium (52% DV), phosphorous (48% DV); and dietary fiber (right table). They also contain about 25% protein per 100 g serving, a higher proportion than in many tree nuts... date: 2015 publisher: ICRISAT place_of_pub: Patancheru, Telangana, India pages: 15 institution: ICRISAT department: RP-Grain Legumes related_url_url: https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Cultural+Management+Practices+of+Groundnut+of+Improved+Groundnut+Varieties+through+Established+Seed+System+in+Various+Cropping+Systems+of+Smallholder+Farmers+in+Odisha&as_epq=Scaling+up&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title related_url_type: pub citation: Janila, P and Mula, M G (2015) Cultural Management Practices of Groundnut : Scaling-up of Improved Groundnut Varieties through Established Seed System in Various Cropping Systems of Smallholder Farmers in Odisha.
