The Peanut Plant Its Growth and Uses in History
The peanut is described as a ground pea not a nut with blooms that form a pod soon after flowering. It is grown in Japan, China and East Indies, least cultivated in the U.S. until 1800. Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee lead U.S. production. Peanuts are plowed up, dried, then stacked for 2–3 weeks before pods are picked by hand or machines. U.S. yields about 4 million bushels annually, with the rest of the world about 20 million, and four grades of peanuts for roasting and candy trade. American consumption for nibbling reportedly costs about ten million dollars.
