How and Where They Grow and Cultivate Peanuts
Peanut is not a true nut but a ground pea. It grows underground after the flower drops, forming a pale yellow pod. Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee produce most U S peanuts, with yields of 50 to 100 bushels per acre under favorable conditions. Peanuts are used for cattle feed, processed into meal, and sold in four grades for roasting and candy. About 4 million bushels are grown in the United States annually, with the rest of the world producing about 20 million bushels. Americans spend around $10 million on peanuts for snacking rather than food.
