Description and Uses
Arachis hypogaea (Peanut) is a
tropical
plant from
Patagonia . It is mainly grown for its
nut crops
, which have a
long shelf life. The crop is harvested by
grubbing. It starts flowering after
0 -
1 years. The yield will be
{missing data}, but in its top season there will be a yield of
{missing data}. Other crop types include;
fodder, nut, fertilization, oil, . The
{missing data} is used as
spice . The
{missing data} is used as "
{missing data} " with
{missing data} ({missing data} -
{missing data}) as its significant
phytochemical. There is
arachis oil extracted by
{missing data} from the
plant's
{missing data} yielding
{missing data} -
{missing data} oil. The
plant's wood is called
inapplicable and has a density of
0 -
0 kg/m³. Regarding firewood production the
plant's growing speed is
medium, it's energetic value is
0 ckal/kg and the wood's drying speed is
{missing data}. After
1 years the
plant can be totally removed as it reached its commercial and ecological goal.
Arachis hypogaea has a lifespan of
1 years.
Environmental limitations
The plant is
1 meters tall with a crown of
1 meters wide. The
plant prefers a planting distance of
10 cm and a row distance of
45 cm. It is

shallow root-system and it has symbiotic associations with the
fungi
(endo-mycorrhiza). It is
able to fix nitrogen moderately with
