  • Are runner type groundnuts suitable for production in South Africa?
  • Runner type groundnuts are unsuitable for production in South Africa because of the longer growth season and the higher moisture requirements of these types. The only groundnuts suitable for South African conditions are the Spanish types with an upright growth habit and short growth season.
  • When to plant groundnuts in South Africa?
  • For successful groundnut production deep ploughing should be implemented. The normal planting time for groundnuts in South Africa is mid October to mid November. However several factors, the most important being rainfall, will determine the precise date. Planting after the first rains in September is not recommended.
  • Do groundnuts need management skills?
  • Groundnut production requires more management skills than many other crops. Successful farmers are those who apply the prescribed management practices throughout the production process. The groundnut plant produces runners (horizontal stems) which in turn produce flowers at each node.
  • What is the best crop rotation system for groundnuts?
  • One of the best crop rotation systems is one in which a grass fallow is followed by groundnuts. Fewer diseases are also present in groundnuts following a grass crop. Usually groundnuts also produce a better crop on fields that have been fallowed. Groundnuts should be grown after a main crop such as maize, small grains, sorghum or millet.
