| Summary, etc |
According to this study groundnut is a valuable crop and one of the most important cash crops in many countries. It is grown in over 100 countries worldwide, with a total production of 37.1 million metric tons and an average productivity of 14 metric tons per hectare. Groundnut is mainly used for its oil, which has many uses, including cooking oil, soap making, fuel, cosmetics, and lubricants. Groundnut requires a long and warm growing season, well-distributed rainfall of at least 50 centimeters during the growing season, abundance of sunshine, and relatively warm temperature. However, the low plant population due to small and marginal farmers' inability to afford seed costs and high cost of seeds, uncertain yield due to poor quality of local seeds, and dependence on rainfall in dry land areas are the reasons for low groundnut yields in India. Additionally, farmers are facing problems with agricultural labor due to the implementation of NREGS. In summary, groundnut is a valuable crop that requires favorable climatic conditions, and low yields in India are due to a lack of proper seed management and labor issues. |
